EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases Ichikawa Ebizo (Danjuro V) in the Role of Mongaku Shonin Disguised as Yamagatsu from the Play Kin no Menuki Minamotoya Kakutsuba, created by the renowned artist Hokusai during the 18th century. This masterpiece belongs to the Edo period and exemplifies the rich heritage art of Japan. In this striking portrait, Ebizo embodies his character with utmost precision and intensity. Dressed in elaborate traditional clothing, his vibrant costume reflects a kaleidoscope of colors that add depth to his portrayal. The polychrome woodblock print captures every intricate detail, showcasing Hokusai's mastery in ink and color on paper. Ebizo's expressive gaze draws viewers into his world, while he wields an axe as a symbolic tool representing power and determination. His footwear, intricately designed sandals known as "sorobeku" further enhance authenticity to this historical depiction. As one delves deeper into this artwork, it becomes evident that Hokusai has skillfully captured not only Ebizo's physical appearance but also his inner essence as an actor. The playfulness of theatrical performance is palpable through every brushstroke. This remarkable piece now resides within the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art where it continues to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty. It serves as a testament to both Hokusai's artistic genius and Ebizo's talent as a performer - forever preserving their legacies for generations to come.
