EDITORS COMMENTS
Hour of the Ox [2am]" (Ushi no koku) is a captivating woodblock print from the series "The Twelve Hours in Yoshiwara" (Seiro Juni Tsuzuki) created by the renowned Japanese artist Kitagawa Utamaro around 1794. This masterpiece showcases the quiet stillness of the early morning hours in the Yoshiwara district of Edo, Japan. The print depicts a young woman, weary from the night's festivities, sitting alone in her chamber. She is dressed in a beautiful kimono adorned with intricate patterns in shades of green, reflecting the calming colors of nature that begin to emerge as the night gives way to dawn. The room is filled with the soothing aroma of incense, adding to the serene atmosphere. Utamaro's skillful use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and texture, drawing the viewer into the scene. The oban-size print, with its meticulous attention to detail, showcases the artistic school's dedication to capturing the essence of everyday life in Japan during the Edo and Tokugawa periods. The woman's tired expression and the quiet surroundings convey the passage of time and the transient nature of human experiences. This woodblock print is not only a beautiful example of traditional Japanese art but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the customs and fashion of the 18th century. This stunning work of art is now part of the collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences from around the world. The Hour of the Ox [2am] (Ushi no koku) is a testament to the enduring legacy of Kitagawa Utamaro and the rich artistic heritage of Japan.
