EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print by Utagawa Kunisada, created between 1847 and 1852, showcases a solitary woman dressed in elegant attire, standing on the deck of a boat under the full moon. The scene is part of Kunisada's "Costumes in Five Different Colors" series, which highlights the intricacies of Japanese fashion during the Edo period. The woman wears a stunning kimono, dyed in various shades of green, purple, and white. The vibrant colors of the fabric are accentuated by the contrasting black outlines and intricate patterns. Her hair is adorned with traditional kanzashi ornaments, adding a touch of elegance to her appearance. The woman gazes off into the distance, holding a small object in her mouth, possibly a piece of food or a tobacco pipe. She is surrounded by the calm waters of the moonlit sea, with a full moon rising behind her. The serene setting is further enhanced by the presence of a small boat in the background, adding to the sense of tranquility and isolation. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the 19th century. The attention to detail in the clothing, the use of color, and the beautiful composition all contribute to the timeless beauty of this work of art. The print is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences.
