EDITORS COMMENTS
The Style of a Feudal Lord's Household (Yashiki-fu)," a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Kitagawa Utamaro, offers a glimpse into the opulent world of the Edo Period aristocracy. Created around 1800/01, this print is part of Utamaro's "Guide to Contemporary Styles" (Tosei fuzoku tsu) series, showcasing the latest fashions and trends among the Japanese elite. The image depicts a solitary figure, a feudal lord, dressed in the height of aristocratic style. He wears a formal black robe, adorned with intricate gold and maroon patterns, which is secured with a sash. His long, black hair is neatly tied back, revealing a shaved head. The lord holds a fan in one hand, a symbol of his rank and status. Surrounding the lord are various attendants and servants, each dressed in their respective roles. Ladies in elegant kimonos with vibrant colors and intricate designs attend to the lord's needs, while male servants in more subdued clothing carry out various tasks. The print provides a detailed and colorful portrayal of the domestic life of a feudal lord during the Tokugawa Period. The meticulous attention to detail and the use of bold colors in this oban-size print demonstrate Utamaro's mastery of the ukiyo-e technique. The print's rich heritage and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a window into the past and a testament to the artistic school of Japan during the 19th century. The Style of a Feudal Lord's Household (Yashiki-fu) is a stunning representation of the fashion, culture, and aristocracy of Japan during the Edo Period, making it a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art, fashion, or history.
