EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print by artist Shohei, Torii, Kiyomasu, we are transported back to the vibrant world of Japanese theater in the early 18th century. The print, created between 1726 and 1736, showcases a full-length view of the talented actor SanjAc Kantaro as he assumes the role of a woman peddler selling love letters. Measuring at 29.7 x 14.2 cm, this colorful artwork beautifully captures Kantaro's portrayal of a character caught between societal expectations and personal desires. With intricate details and skillful brushwork, Shohei brings out the essence of Kantaro's performance on stage. The composition allows us to witness Kantaro's transformation into this female peddler with great authenticity. His expressive face reveals both vulnerability and determination as he engages with potential customers. The delicate folds of his kimono and carefully rendered accessories further enhance the realism portrayed in this woodcut. This piece from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection is not just an artistic masterpiece but also serves as a window into Japan's rich theatrical tradition during that period. It reminds us of the versatility and talent required for actors like Kantaro to convincingly portray characters across genders. As we admire this print, let us appreciate its historical significance while marveling at how art has always been able to transcend time and bring forth stories that resonate with audiences even centuries later.
