Rebuses are wordplay using homophones, which are common in Japanese, to decipher the sound represented by the picture and come up with an answer. In this exhibition, the ukiyo-e artists from the Edo to Meiji periods, who were part of the Utagawa school, present challenging and unique questions using their skillfully designed patterns.
