This print, titled "Nibijin ude-zumA a┼¢] = [Arm-wrestling between two beauties]" is a masterpiece created by the renowned Japanese artist Kitagawa Utamaro during the Edo period in 1793. It belongs to the genre of ukiyo-e, which translates to "pictures of the floating world" and showcases Utamaro's exceptional talent for portraying beautiful women. In this vibrant artwork, two stunning bijin (beautiful women) engage in an intense arm-wrestling match. The composition captures their strength and determination as they lock eyes with unwavering focus. The use of color prints adds depth and richness to their elegant kimonos, enhancing their allure. Utamaro's portrayal of these women goes beyond mere physical beauty; he skillfully conveys their passion and spirit through his meticulous brushwork. Their expressions reveal a mix of competitiveness and camaraderie, making this piece not only visually striking but also emotionally engaging. As one delves into this woodblock print, it becomes evident that it is more than just a depiction of arm-wrestling; it represents the complexities of human relationships and challenges societal norms regarding femininity. Utamaro's work continues to captivate viewers even centuries later due to its timeless appeal. The Liszt Collection proudly presents this remarkable example from Utamaro's oeuvre—a testament to his mastery as an artist—and invites you to immerse yourself in the passionate artistry that
