Ukiyo-e (Pictures of the Floating World), is a genre of Japanese art from the 17th-19th centuries that has produced and inspired some of the most treasured woodblock prints.
I also share bits of Japanese culture.

In Japanese folklore kitsunebi is a yokai phenomenon occurring at night when magical foxes breathe out colored balls of fire which float in the air and are used as lanterns to light their way. Seeing this fox fire is often a sign that a fox wedding or demon parade is occurring. 🎨Utagawa Hiroshige
