EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century woodblock print, titled "Yellow" by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Kunisada, showcases a beautiful woman dressed in a vibrant yellow kimono from the Edo period. The print is part of Kunisada's series "Costumes in Five Different Colors," which showcases the elegance and intricacy of traditional Japanese clothing. The woman in the print is depicted standing on a terrace, looking down with a thoughtful expression. She is dressed in a full-length kimono with a checkered pattern in shades of yellow and brown. The kimono is adorned with intricate designs and patterns, including a geometric check pattern at the hem, and a delicate floral pattern at the sleeves. She wears a matching obi belt and a pair of traditional zori sandals. In her hand, she holds a handkerchief or hankie, adding a touch of elegance to her outfit. The print is a polychrome woodblock, meaning that it was created using multiple blocks for each color. The rich, bright colors and intricate details are characteristic of Kunisada's work during this period. The woman's kimono is made of kinraisha silk, a high-quality fabric that was popular during the Tokugawa era. The print is a testament to the beauty and sophistication of Japanese fashion during this time, and is a valuable piece of heritage art. This print is currently housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and is a popular attraction for visitors interested in Japanese art and fashion. The exterior of the print showcases the artist's skill in creating a visually stunning image, with the woman's elegant pose and the intricate details of her clothing. Overall, this print is a beautiful representation of Japanese culture and fashion during the 1850s.
