EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print by Kitao Shigemasa, titled "Two Geishas Out Walking" transports us to the Edo period in 18th century Japan. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this era through his use of polychrome woodblock printing techniques. In this scene, we see two geishas elegantly strolling along a bustling street. Dressed in exquisite kimonos adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, they epitomize grace and beauty. Their attention to detail is evident not only in their clothing but also in their choice of footwear - geta, traditional wooden platform shoes that add height and elegance to their stature. The geishas' hand gestures suggest animated conversation or perhaps an invitation to join them on their journey. One can almost imagine the melodious sound of their voices as they engage passersby with wit and charm. Shigemasa's meticulous ink work brings depth and life to each figure, highlighting every delicate feature of these women who were highly skilled entertainers during this time. Through his artistry, he pays homage to the rich heritage of Japanese culture while providing a glimpse into the daily lives of these fascinating individuals. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this remarkable piece serves as a testament to Shigemasa's mastery as well as an invaluable window into Japan's artistic legacy during the Edo period.
