EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, created by the renowned artist Shunsho, showcases Iwai Hanshiro IV in the role of Agemaki in the Kabuki play "Sakai-cho Soga Nendaiki," performed at the Nakamura Theater in the third month of 1771. The Edo Period (1603-1868) masterpiece is a testament to the artistic school of Katsukawa, which flourished during the eighteenth century in Japan. Agemaki, a female impersonator, is depicted here in a striking ensemble of beige and lime green apparel. His kimono, adorned with intricate calligraphy, is cinched at the waist with a hosoban obi, while his geta feature carriage boots with block-printed designs. Agemaki's attire is a blend of traditional and contemporary fashion, reflecting the artistic innovation of the time. The actor, with a hint of a smirk, looks away from the viewer, adding an air of mystery and allure to his character. The print, from a multisheet composition, showcases the attention to detail and mastery of color that characterized Shunsho's work. The use of beige and lime green creates a striking contrast, further enhancing the visual appeal of the print. This woodblock print is a precious heritage art piece, offering a glimpse into the world of Kabuki theater and the artistic traditions of Japan during the eighteenth century. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of Asian art, drama, and fashion.
