Yes Shin Hanga is the good stuff.
I have grown to quite dislike ukiyo-e. It is essentially 17th century Japanese Instagram, in the worst possible sense, and began something closer to OnlyFans. It is incredible what it morphed into.
For reference, the classic book “Images of the Floating World” contains some of the most hilariously pornographic images of any serious art book.

But of the old stuff, Hiroshige is amazing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fifty-three_Stations_of_the_Tōkaidō https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fifty-three_Stations_of_th... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sixty-nine_Stations_of_the_Kiso_Kaidō https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sixty-nine_Stations_of_the...
