EDITORS COMMENTS
Geisha and Attendants by a Wharf in the Fukagawa District, c1780" is a stunning and evocative woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Kitao Masanobu, part of his series "Ten Forms of Modern Lovely Women." This exquisite chuban-size print, dating from the Edo period of the eighteenth century, offers a captivating glimpse into the world of geishas and their attendants in old Tokyo. The scene unfolds on the bustling waterfront of Fukagawa, with the geisha and her companions standing near a boat, seemingly preparing for a journey. The geisha, elegantly dressed in a vibrant kimono, gestures gracefully with one hand, while her attendants carry her luggage and don practical geta sandals. One attendant wears a carriage boot, a fashionable accessory of the time, while another holds a large umbrella, shielding the group from the sun. In the background, the hustle and bustle of the wharf is depicted, with boats moored along the water's edge and people going about their daily business. Iwase Samurō, a famous contemporary artist, is known to have collaborated with Masanobu on this print, adding an extra layer of artistic significance. This full-length print, with its intricate details and rich colors, showcases the beauty and elegance of traditional Japanese clothing and footwear during the Edo period. It also highlights the various occupations and roles of women in Japanese society during this era, from the geisha as an entertainer to the servants who supported her. Today, this masterpiece is preserved in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, a testament to the enduring legacy of Kitao Masanobu and the Ukiyo-e tradition in Japanese art.
