L'ukiyo-e (浮世絵 ukiyo-e?, lett. "immagini del mondo fluttuante") è un genere di stampa artistica giapponese su carta, impressa con matrici di legno, nata e sviluppatasi durante il periodo Edo, tra l'inizio del XVII e la fine del XIX secolo. Tali stampe, eseguite tramite xilografia, furono inizialmente monocromatiche e in seguito vennero realizzate a colori.
