Over 2,600 Ukiyo-e Prints from the collection of the Tobacco & Salt Museum have been released

The Art Research Center (ARC) at Ritsumeikan University is pleased to announce that more than 2,600 ukiyo-e prints in the collection of the Tobacco & Salt Museum in Tokyo have now been made publicly available in the ARC Database System.
These works can be found by searching for "tsm" in the "Owner" field in the ARC Japanese Prints (Ukiyo-e) and Paintings Portal Database.
https://www.dh-jac.net/db/nishikie/search_tsm.php

The Tobacco & Salt Museum's collection of ukiyo-e chiefly consists of materials collected by the Monopoly Bureau of the Ministry of Finance, Japan, beginning in 1932, for the purposes of understanding the history and development of smoking culture. It is valuable not only for learning about the cultural history of tobacco, but also as a fascinating resource for industrial and commercial history. The collection includes materials spanning from the early Edo period to the Meiji period, and features works by a diversity of artists.
The Museum published a catalog in 2010 entitled "Ukiyo-e hanga," complete with color plates. Now, nearly the entire collection is made available to view online.
Please enjoy and make use of this newly-available resource.

Art Research Center (ARC) Director, Professor Akama will give a special lecture.
