EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "A tea-house in Ryogoku" is part of the series Bijin juyo (Ten Female Figures) created by the renowned artist Utamaro Kitagawa in 1797. The print measures 31.2x21.5 cm and is currently housed at the Musee Claude Monet in Giverny, France. The image transports us to a serene tea-house nestled within the vibrant streets of Ryogoku, Japan during the Edo period. Utamaro's meticulous attention to detail brings this scene to life as we witness ten graceful female figures engaging in various activities. Intriguingly adorned with exquisite headdresses, these women exude elegance and poise while savoring their cups of tea. Their delicate gestures and expressions hint at a moment of tranquility amidst bustling surroundings. Utamaro masterfully incorporates elements from daily life into his composition - a testament to ukiyo-e art's focus on capturing fleeting moments from the floating world. A fish swimming gracefully in a nearby pond adds an element of natural beauty to this urban oasis. It is fascinating to note that this particular print was once part of Claude Monet's private collection, showcasing its significance even among esteemed collectors. As we gaze upon this timeless masterpiece, we are transported back centuries ago, immersing ourselves in both Japanese culture and artistic excellence. Utamaro's skillful portrayal invites us to appreciate not only the aesthetics but also the essence of everyday
