About
Culinary culture flourished in
Japan during the prosperous Edo period (1615–1868), when Japan experienced its
longest period of peace. These 18 woodblock prints explore the richness of Edo
cuisine, its beautiful presentations, and the wide variety of ingredients from
land and sea that contributed to its development.
