    representing
    sexual
    acts
    in

    ,

    Meiji periods
    (17th

    until

    You
    are
    assigned
    to
    all
    the
    Ukiyo-e genre
    ,
    their
    production
    participated
    almost
    all
    known
    woodblock artists
    (mostly
    under
    the
    pseudonym).
    The
    dealer
    and
    Publisher
    called
    Kagami-e
    (mirror images)
    or
    WA-jirushi
    (soulful
    prints).
    The
    term
    Higa
    ,
    secret
    pictures)
    was
    possibly
    only
    for
    illustrations
    of
    sexual
    content
    on
    the
    walls
    ,
    use
    the

    and
    the
    place screens
    of
    premises
    earmarked
    for
    secret
    rendezvous
    .
    The
    term
    Sunga
    (
    the
    "Spring"
    is
    a
    metaphor
    for
    sex
    )
    was built
    during
    the
    Meiji period
    (1868-1912).
    Parallel
    to this
    was
    that
    the
    term
    Shunbon
    (spring books)
    for
    sexual
    content
    in
    use
    books
    .
    Shunga
    or
    Makura-e
    were
    officially
    banned
    ,
    as
    they
    were
    still
    called
    at
    the
    end
    of
    the Edo
    period
    since
    1720.
    By
    the
    authorities
    ,
    they
    were
    however
    with
    the
    exception
    of a
    period
    of
    10
    to
    15
    years
    after
    1720
    ,
    and
    some
    years
    following
    the
    Kansei reforms
    (1788-93),
    where
    this
    prohibition
    was
    renewed
    ,
    more
    or
    less
    tolerated
    ;
    their
    sale
    "under
    the
    counter"
    was
    possible
    without
    fear
    of
    sanctions
    .
    1869
    Warai e
    and
    Enbon
    were
    Once again
    banned
    ,
    but
    continued to
    produced
    and
    purchased
    ,
    albeit
    to
    a lesser
    extent
    than
    before
    .
    Towards
    the
    end
    of
    the
    Meiji period
    both
    production
    and
    distribution
    as
