EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Courtesan of Osaka and Her Attendant" transports us back to the vibrant world of 18th-century Japan. Created by the talented artist Ishikawa Toyonobu, this hand-coloured woodblock print is a true masterpiece of ukiyo-e art. The left sheet of a triptych, it showcases two elegant women in traditional attire. The courtesan from Osaka takes center stage, exuding grace and allure with her elaborate kimono and intricate hairstyle adorned with combs. Standing beside her is her kamuro, a young girl assistant depicted unusually in full-face view. This rare portrayal adds an intriguing element to the composition. In this scene, we witness a quiet moment as the courtesan reads a letter while holding a scroll delicately in one hand. The tea set nearby suggests that she enjoys this peaceful activity during breaks from her profession. The attention to detail is remarkable, evident in every brushstroke and color choice that brings life to each figure. Through this artwork, Toyonobu captures not only the beauty but also the complexity of Japanese society during the Edo period. It offers us glimpses into their customs, occupations, and daily lives. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's gallery dedicated to Asian arts, this exquisite piece serves as a testament to both cultural heritage and artistic excellence. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to transport viewers across time and space into an enchanting era filled with elegance and tradition
