EDITORS COMMENTS
Torii Kiyomasu I's captivating print, "Yoshitsune and Shizuka (Uijin)," circa 1704-1711, showcases the legendary love story between Minamoto no Yoshitsune and Gozen Shizuka, portrayed by the renowned Kabuki actors Nakamura Takesaburo and Hayakawa Denshiro. Set against a backdrop of the Heian period, the full-length portrait highlights the intricate details of their authentic costumes and accessories. Yoshitsune, dressed in a black armor and wielding a katana, exudes a regal and powerful presence. In contrast, Shizuka, clad in an elegant kimono with a black obi, embodies the grace and beauty of a noblewoman. The print's rich colors and intricate block printing techniques bring the historic figures to life, transporting us to a time long past. The connection between the two is palpable, as they gaze into each other's eyes, their love story immortalized in art. This stunning work of art, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a testament to the enduring appeal of Japanese history and culture.
