EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the renowned play "Yoshitsune and the Thousand Cherry Trees" during Japan's Edo period in the 18th century. The image showcases the incredible artistry of Katsukawa Shunko, an esteemed artist of that time. In this particular moment, we witness intense emotions as depicted by talented actors on stage. A male performer, Kiyokawa Denjiro, skillfully portrays a female impersonator known as onnagata or oyama. With bare feet firmly planted on the ground, his body language exudes anger and fury. The vibrant polychrome woodblock print beautifully showcases every detail of this theatrical performance. The use of ink and color on paper brings life to each character's expression and costume. As our eyes wander through this mesmerizing artwork, we notice a man pleading for mercy while holding a bucket or pail in his hands - perhaps symbolizing an act of submission or seeking forgiveness amidst chaos. This piece not only highlights the artistic excellence prevalent during that era but also provides us with a glimpse into Japanese culture and heritage. It serves as a reminder of how theater has been an integral part of entertainment throughout history, transcending time and borders. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this remarkable woodblock print continues to captivate viewers with its powerful portrayal of human emotions within the realm of traditional Japanese performing arts known as ukiyo-e.
