Traditional ukiyo-e woodblock paintings may be Japan's most iconic form of art. While it thrived from 17th to 19th centuries, the style still survives today with contemporary subjects such as David Bowie and NBA stars. Talented illustrator and manga artist Ono Tako (@ono800) is keeping that trend alive with their absolutely gorgeous ukiyo-e renditions of Disney princesses and Sailor Moon.

Ono Tako's gorgeous prints come with the label "西洋御伽草子" (seiyou otogizoshi, "Western Fairy Tales), and seamlessly reproduces characters from Disney favorites such as Snow White, Cinderella, The Little Mermaid, Frozen, and as an added bonus, Sailor Moon.
