1841–1843
Tenpo Reforms: actors and courtesans banned
The Tenpo Reforms, meant to ease an economic crisis, curb displays of luxury and officially ban the depiction of courtesans and actors. Kuniyoshi answers with caricature prints and comic pictures (giga) that disguise real actors and courtesans; many allegorically criticize the shogunate — for example a 1843 design of Minamoto no Yorimitsu asleep, haunted by the Earth Spider and his demons — and become popular among a politically dissatisfied public.

After the ban on theater scenes, actors, geisha and courtesans he makes his “cat” series, prints from an educational series for housewives and children, and portrays national heroes in the series “Tradition, Morality and Decorum”.
