Spring Outing
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning color woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Torii Kiyonaga, created around 1783. This exquisite work is part of the series "A Collection of Contemporary Beauties of the Pleasure Quarters" (Tosei yuri bijin awase), which showcases the elegance and beauty of women of the Yoshiwara district in Edo-period Japan. The print depicts three young women dressed in traditional kimono, enjoying a spring outing in a serene, picturesque setting. The women are adorned in vibrant, colorful clothing, with one wearing a green kimono and obi, another in a brown kimono with a striped obi, and the third in a yellow kimono and obi. Their clothing is intricately detailed, with various patterns and designs, reflecting the artistic skill and craftsmanship of the Torii School. The scene takes place in a tranquil location, with cherry blossoms in bloom and a clear blue sky overhead. The women are surrounded by a sense of joy and relaxation, as they take in the beauty of the season and each other's company. The print is a beautiful representation of the traditional arts and culture of Japan during the eighteenth century, and a testament to the enduring appeal of ukiyo-e art. This right sheet of oban diptych is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is a cherished addition to their extensive collection of Asian art. The print is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Japan and the continued influence of ukiyo-e on contemporary art and fashion. The three women in "Spring Outing" embody the grace and beauty of the contemporary beauties of the pleasure quarters, and their image continues to captivate viewers more than two centuries after it was created.
