historic landscapes.
great battles.
the everyday world.
Solution
Answer
The answer is the everyday world.
Explanation
Option 1: The ruler and his court
Ukiyo-e prints did not primarily focus on the ruler and his court. These prints were more concerned with the lives of common people and popular culture.
Option 2: Historic landscapes
While some ukiyo-e prints did depict landscapes, they were not necessarily historic. The focus was more on capturing the beauty of nature and famous locations rather than historical events.
Option 3: Great battles
Ukiyo-e prints did not typically depict great battles. This genre of art was more focused on scenes from daily life, entertainment, and nature.
Option 4: The everyday world
Ukiyo-e, which translates to "pictures of the floating world," primarily depicted the everyday world. This included scenes of daily life, kabuki actors, sumo wrestlers, beautiful women, landscapes, and scenes from folk tales. The prints were a reflection of the urban lifestyle and culture of the Edo period in Japan.
