If sensuality had a name, it would be without a doubt Utamaro. Delicately underlining the Garden of Pleasures that once constituted Edo, Utamaro, by the richness of his fabrics, the long necks of swans, the mysterious looks, evoke in a few lines the sensual pleasure of the Orient. If some scenes betray discreetly lovers' games, a great number of his shungas recall that love in Japan is first and foremost erotic.

"L'art de l'Ukiyo-e reflète l'expression artistique d'une civilisation qui influença nombre d'artistes européens. Les trois maîtres de l'Ukiyo-e, Hokusai, Utamaro et Hiroshige, sont réunis pour créer un ouvrage de référence de l'art japonais et de l'art de l'estampe."
"Wenn die Sinnlichkeit einen Namen hätte, so würde dieserohne Zweifel Utamaro lauten denn Utamaro beschwört inseiner Darstellung des Gartens der Freuden, der Edo (Tokio)einstmals war, mit der Pracht seiner Gewänder, denSchwanenhälsen seiner Frauen und den geheimnisvollenBlicken mit einigen wenigen Linien die sinnlichen Freudendes Orients herauf. Auch wenn einige seiner Bilder aufdiskrete Weise die Spiele von Liebenden verraten, so ruft einegroße Anzahl seiner Shungas uns in Erinnerung, dass die Liebein Japan in erster Linie erotisch ist."
