The Japanese term "uchuu-jin" (宇宙人) refers to space aliens in popular culture and science fiction. The term literally means "space person" and is often used to describe beings from other planets or galaxies.

19th-century Japanese ukiyo-e artists created captivating depictions of visiting UFOs during this time. These artworks played a significant role in spreading the influence of the uchuu-jin beyond Kyoto, becoming popular among the general population. People would gather to appreciate the intricate details of the UFOs depicted in their wood-block prints.

[This is the first in a series of original, digital, fantasy ukiyo-e creations, called "Skies Over Kyoto." It's exclusively available from Sacred Surreal.]
