EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Takigawa Ōgiya series titled "Beauties as the Seven Komachi" is a stunning example of Utagawa Toyokuni's mastery in color woodblock printing. Created between 1793 and 1797, this exquisite artwork showcases Toyokuni's exceptional talent for capturing the beauty and grace of women during Japan's Edo period. Measuring at 38.4 x 25 cm, this print depicts seven elegantly dressed women known as Komachi, each representing a different aspect of feminine allure. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these characters to life, allowing us to appreciate their individuality and charm. Toyokuni's skillful use of ink and color on paper further enhances the visual impact of this piece. The delicate lines and shading create depth and dimension, while the rich hues add a sense of vibrancy that draws viewers into the scene. The Takigawa Ōgiya series was highly popular during its time due to its portrayal of beautiful courtesans who were admired for their style, sophistication, and intellect. This particular print exemplifies Toyokuni's ability to capture not only physical beauty but also the inner essence of his subjects. As part of the Liszt Collection, this print offers a glimpse into Japan's artistic heritage while showcasing Utagawa Toyokuni's immense talent as one of Japan’s most celebrated ukiyo-e artists.
