"The Hundred Poets Compared discusses a print series by three of the most famous Japanese print artists of the 19th century: Kuniyoshi, Hiroshige, and Kunisada. This series of one hundred prints is known as the Ogura nazorae hyakunin isshu (Companions of the Ogura One Hundred Poets, One Poem Each) and constitutes a typical example of serial graphics from the world of Ukiyo-e." "Each print compares one of the poems from the most-beloved collection of Japanese poetry, The One Hundred Poets, One Poem Each (Hyahunin isshu), with a scene from Japanese history or theatre."--BOOK JACKET.
