| Publishing ornate yakusha-e (prints of kabuki actors) and bijinga (type of ukiyo-e portraying beautiful women) were strictly restricted and painters were obliged to shift to landscape drawings, satirical drawings or works with a lesser number of colors. |
それまでの華美な役者絵・美人画は発行を厳しく制限され、風景画や風刺画、あるいは色数の少ない作品への転換を余儀なくされていたのである。 |
