EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Shunsho (Otani Hiroji III) showcases Otani Hiroji III in the role of an Otokodate, or a heroic male character, possibly portraying Satsuma Gengobei from the erotic design play "Iro Moyo Aoyagi Soga" (Green Willow Soga of Erotic Design). The print, created around 1775, is a testament to the rich artistic traditions of the Katsukawa School during the Edo period. Hiroji III is depicted wearing traditional Japanese clothing, including a beige kimono with intricate patterns and a colorful obi sash. He is shown holding a sword, its hilt adorned with calligraphy, adding to the overall aesthetic appeal of the print. The blade is sheathed in a green scabbard, which complements the title of the play. The artist, Shunsho, masterfully employs the technique of color woodblock printing to bring the image to life. The use of vibrant colors and bold lines adds depth and dimension to the print, making it a standout piece of Asian art. The print's background is simple, with a muted green tone, allowing the focus to remain on the heroic figure. This print is a significant example of the entertainment and artistic traditions of Japan during the Edo period. It showcases the fusion of drama, fashion, and artistic skill, making it a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or art history.
