EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Geisha Ofusa of Amanoya Threatened with Arrest for Indecent Exposure on a Hot Evening," is a masterpiece by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi from the Meiji Era (1868-1912) of Japan. Part of his "The Postal News" series, number 702, this full-length print showcases the intricate details of traditional Japanese culture, fashion, and societal norms of the time. The geisha, named Ofusa, is depicted in a state of distress, standing indoors with her kimono open, revealing more skin than was socially acceptable. The accusing policeman, with a stern expression and raised cane, looms over her, threatening arrest for indecent exposure. The scene is set against a backdrop of traditional Japanese interior design, with intricate calligraphy adorning the walls and a folding screen adding to the sense of intimacy. The vivid colors and intricate details of the woodblock print are a testament to the skill and artistry of the artist and the woodcut printing process. The geisha's kimono, with its delicate patterns and rich hues, is a stunning representation of the traditional clothing and apparel of the time. The print also highlights the contrast between the geisha's role as an entertainer and the strict societal norms and laws that governed her profession. This print is a valuable piece of heritage art, providing a glimpse into the Meiji Era of Japan and the complexities of its society. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art is fortunate to have this print in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and intricacy of Japanese woodblock prints and the artistry of Tsukioka Yoshitoshi.
