EDITORS COMMENTS
Tokugawa Ienobu, the 13th Shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate in Japan, is depicted in this stunning woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi from the late 19th century. The print is part of the series "Brief Account of the Rulers of the Tokugawa Clan," which showcases the historical figures of the Tokugawa Dynasty. In this particular print, Ienobu is depicted in a full-length audience with a messenger from Korea, who is shown kneeling respectfully before him. The scene takes place inside the Shogun's palace during the Meiji Era (1868-1912), a time of significant change and modernization in Japan. Ienobu is dressed in the traditional black and red robes of the Tokugawa Shoguns, with a formal kimono and a wide-brimmed hat adorned with a crest. The messenger, dressed in Korean attire, wears a long, flowing robe with intricate patterns and a wide belt. The interior of the palace is depicted in rich detail, with ornate architectural features, intricate woodwork, and decorative elements. The use of color is masterful, with the black and red of Ienobu's clothing contrasting against the warm tones of the interior. The print is a testament to the artistic heritage of Japan and the importance of historical record-keeping. This print is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or historical records. It provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the fashion, customs, and political dynamics of Japan during the Tokugawa Era.
