This great book delves into the elusive world of traditional Japanese tattooing. The spirit of the samurai, bushido, is an integral part of Japanese tattooing, traced through the imagery and interpersonal dynamics of this veiled subculture. The eloquent text is largely based on Takahiro Kitamura's experiences as a customer and student of the famous Japanese tattoo master Horiyoshi III. Over 200 beautiful photographs by Jai Tanju capture the breathtaking tattoo art of Horiyoshi III. Five unpublished original engravings by Horiyoshi III, like those in his acclaimed book 100 Demons of Horiyoshi III, are included here. Bushido: Legacies of the Japanese Tattoo will fascinate anyone interested in tattoo culture."
