EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases "Shioginu of the Tsutaya" from Isoda Koryusai's renowned series "Models for Fashion: New Designs as Fresh as Young Leaves". Created in the late 18th century, this woodblock print beautifully captures the essence of traditional Japanese fashion. In this scene, we see four individuals elegantly dressed in colorful kimonos adorned with floral patterns. The attention to detail is remarkable, with every fold and intricate design meticulously depicted through the art of block printing. Each person carries a parasol, adding an air of grace and sophistication to their ensemble. The central figure, Shioginu, stands out in her pink kimono embellished with roses. Her grey oban muff complements her outfit perfectly while providing a touch of warmth during colder seasons. As she walks gracefully on geta sandals, Shioginu exudes confidence and poise. Isoda Koryusai's artistic skill shines through in this portrait-like composition that celebrates both fashion and culture. This piece not only serves as a visual representation of 18th-century Japan but also highlights the enduring beauty found within traditional costume. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's Asian Arts gallery, this print transports viewers back to a bygone era where elegance was paramount. It serves as a testament to Koryusai's mastery of woodblock printing techniques and his ability to capture timeless moments in history through his artistry.
