EDITORS COMMENTS
Tsukioka Yoshitoshi's captivating woodblock print, titled "Police Arresting the Geisha Oharu and Okin for Injuring an Old Man While Galloping on Horseback," transports us back to the Meiji Era of Japan in the late 1870s. The vibrant and intricately detailed print is part of Yoshitoshi's "The Postal News" series, number 576, and showcases a significant incident that unfolded on the streets of Japan during this time. The image depicts four people involved in an unfortunate accident: two geishas, Oharu and Okin, riding horseback in careless abandon, their colorful apparel and elaborate hairstyles contrasting starkly with the serious expressions on the faces of the two policemen attempting to apprehend them. The elderly man, who has been injured by their reckless galloping, is shown standing beside the horses, his distress evident in his crumpled clothing and dejected posture. The scene is set against a backdrop of a bustling Japanese street, with onlookers gathered to witness the unfolding drama. The horses, adorned with harnesses, are shown in mid-gallop, their hooves kicking up dust as they race down the road. The intricate details of the horses' manes and tails, as well as the intricate patterns on the geishas' clothing, are masterfully captured in the woodblock print. This powerful and evocative image provides a glimpse into the daily life of Japan during the Meiji Era, highlighting the contrast between the carefree entertainment industry and the strict enforcement of the law. The print is a testament to Yoshitoshi's skill as an artist and his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time, making it a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or art history.
