EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print, titled "Portrait of Santo Kyoden, the Master of Kyobashi" takes us back to the vibrant world of 18th-century Edo period Japan. Created by the talented artist Rekisentei Eiri, this color woodblock print showcases his mastery in capturing not only physical features but also the essence and character of his subject. Santo Kyoden, a renowned poet and writer during that era, is depicted with great attention to detail. His hair styled impeccably and adorned with an elegant hairpin reflects the fashion trends of the time. Holding a hand-held fan delicately in one hand and a kiseru (tobacco pipe) in another, he exudes an air of sophistication and refinement. The artist's skillful use of colors brings life to every aspect of this artwork – from Santo Kyoden's richly patterned robe to the intricate design on his fan. The woodblock printing technique employed here adds depth and texture to each stroke, enhancing its overall visual impact. This portrait serves as both a testament to Santo Kyoden's literary contributions and as a snapshot into Japanese society during this period. It invites us to delve into the world of ukiyo-e art while offering glimpses into the lives and occupations that shaped it. Displayed at The Art Institute Chicago's Arts of Asia gallery, this piece stands as a testament to Rekisentei Eiri's artistic prowess while honoring Santo Kyoden's enduring legacy as an influential figure in
