Hopefully the people in charge of this exhibit have made absolutely certain that none of the characters depicted in these prints are - or could be construed to be - under the age of 18. I'd certainly hate to read that everyone involved wound up being arrested and charged with possession of child pornography.

There's a ton here: http://www.akantiek.nl

The top entry here should remind you of a recent title Media Blasters licensed: http://www.akantiek.nl/p2141-p2157.Utagawa-Kuniyoshi.html Laughing

Also, see the two entries about "harikata" here: http://www.akantiek.nl/shun7.htm
I'm actually very impressed with craftsmanship of the harikata

Some laws are so silly... Anyway, awesome artworks. Their style is great, and you can see where manga came from. Japanese art had always been quite stylized. ^^

Think about it. Hentai essentially dates back to the 1800's. Shocked
