EDITORS COMMENTS
Righteousness (Gi) is a captivating woodblock print from the early 1810s, created by the renowned Japanese artist Kubo Shunman. This masterpiece is part of the Five Designs for the Katsushika Poetry Circle series, a collection of exquisite surimono prints produced during the Edo period. The print depicts a solitary woman, dressed in traditional Japanese attire, wearing a elegant kimono adorned with intricate patterns in black and pink. Her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, held in place by an ornate kanzashi hairpin. The woman's serious expression and the title "Righteousness" suggest a sense of moral fortitude and determination. The background of the print features a beautiful rose, symbolizing love and admiration, adding an extra layer of meaning to the composition. The print is executed in the ukiyo-e style, a traditional artistic school that flourished during the Edo period in Japan. This woodblock print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the 19th century. The intricate details, bold colors, and masterful calligraphy showcase the skill and artistry of Kubo Shunman. The print is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or art history, and a stunning example of the beauty and complexity of Japanese art and fashion during the Tokugawa period.
