"Erotic Double-pageprint From A Pillow Book" is a renowned work by Katsushika Hokusai, a prominent 18th-century Japanese artist widely known for woodblock and paintings in the Uyo-e style. Characterized by its exploratory presentation of sexuality, the work is notably a part of Hokusai's "shunga" series, a traditional form of Japanese erotic art.

The art piece features two main subjects engaged in an amorous liaison, a common theme in Hokusai's shunga works. Hokusai's intricate execution and meticulous attention to detail are plainly evident, from the delicate patterns of the fabric drapery to the intricate hair stylings of the subjects. The composition provides a voyeuristic glimpse into the intimate lives of Edo period Japan.

As the name suggests, "Erotic Double-pageprint From A Pillow Book" was originally found in a "pillow book," a name derived from the practice of tucking such books near one's sleeping area. These books were commonly gifted to brides to provide education about marital duties. The term is a direct translation from the Japanese "makura-bon," where "makura" signifies 'pillow' and "bon" stands for 'book.'

In addition to portraying sexuality, Hokusai's work is an in-depth study of the human form, kinesthetics, interior design, textile patterns, and hairstyles of the period. It not only offers insight into the taboos and aesthetic values of Edo period society, but it also serves as an artistic critique of these societal norms.

Remember, while explicit content is present, in traditional Japanese culture, shunga is viewed primarily for its artistic and educational merit rather than for scandal or titillation. Hokusai's "Erotic Double-pageprint From A Pillow Book" embodies the Nanshoku tradition in Japanese art and records an important facet of Japanese societal customs of the Edo period.
