EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Courtesan Hanao of Ogi-ya" by Kuniyoshi, a renowned Japanese artist from the Edo period. Created between 1830 and 1844, this colour woodblock print is a stunning example of Ukiyo-e artistry. In this piece, we are transported to ancient Japan as we witness the beauty and grace of Hanao, a courtesan from the esteemed Ogi-ya establishment. Adorned in an elaborate blue kimono with intricate patterns and flowing robes, she exudes elegance and sophistication. The composition portrays two figures - Hanao herself and another person whose identity remains unknown. The details in their clothing reflect the fashion trends of the time, showcasing the opulence and attention to detail that were characteristic of traditional Japanese attire. Kuniyoshi's mastery is evident in his ability to capture every delicate feature with precision. From Hanao's mesmerizing gaze to her perfectly styled hair adorned with kanzashi (traditional hair ornaments), every element adds depth to her allure. This woodblock print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japan during this era. It reminds us of the enduring beauty found within art forms that have stood the test of time. (Photo © GraphicaArtis; Japanese, out of copyright)
