EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Bando Hikosaburo V as the Wrestler Onigatake," dates back to the 1860s and was created by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Kunisada. The image showcases Bando Hikosaburo V, a prominent Kabuki actor of the time, portrayed as the wrestler Onigatake Doemon. Kunisada masterfully captures the essence of the wrestler's character, with his intense gaze averted and his muscular physique adorned in traditional Japanese clothing. The actor's outfit is a stunning example of Edo period fashion. The checked kimono, known as a "gepparo," is embellished with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, reflecting the rich heritage of Japanese art. The kimono is accessorized with a "kinraisha," a traditional sash, and a "gototei," a formal robe worn over the kimono. The actor's hair is styled in an elaborate "sekitori nidai no shobuzuke," a hairstyle popular during the Edo period. The print also features calligraphy by Ichiyosai, adding an additional layer of artistic depth to the image. The use of mica in the print gives it a unique shimmering effect, enhancing the overall visual appeal. This stunning work of art is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the 19th century and the enduring appeal of Kabuki theater. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to have this magnificent piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and historical significance of Japanese art and the world of Kabuki theater.
