Product Description
Picking up where Bushido: Legacies of the Japanese Tattoo left off, join Horiyuki as she studies the art of Japanese tattooing with Master Horiyoshi III. Jill "Horiyuki" Mandelbaum takes you on a very candid firsthand account of her exploratiion. Follow her through text and over 270 color photographs into the studios and home of Horiyoshi as well as the shrines and temples of Japan. Offering a bold, new, and very Western perspective to studying the Japanese tattoo, this book is a must have for anyone interested in tattoo arts and cross-cultural study. With a foreword by Takahiro "Horitaka" Kitamura, this book also features never before published photos of tattoos by Horiyoshi III.

I would have loved way more insight into Horiyoshi III's life and techniques. More anecdotes and stories from Jill's visits and studies. The text feels short and light, but interesting nonetheless. The photos are not great. Many are blurry and some even look like they were enlarged from lo-res jpegs. Definitely some image resolution issues. It's a nice addition to the library but I'm left feeling hungry.
