EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Arashi Ryūzō I Ishibe Kinkichi Play Hana Ayame Bunroku Soga" transports us back to the Edo period in Japan, between 1615 and 1868. Created in 1794 by Tōshūsai Sharaku, a renowned Japanese artist active during that time, this polychrome woodblock print showcases the skillful use of ink, color, white mica, and paper. In the image, we see a figure dressed as an actor wearing an elaborate kimono. With expressive gestures and a determined expression on his face, he embodies the character of Uguisu no Jiro from the play Hana Ayame Bunroku Soga. The swaggering Ishibe Kinkichi is depicted grasping his right sleeve with his left hand while pushing up his bare forearm—a powerful display of readiness for battle. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every fold of fabric and brushstroke comes alive through this medium. Through Artokoloro's masterful reproduction technique, we can appreciate the intricate beauty of this historical piece. As we gaze upon this print, it serves as a window into Japan's rich cultural heritage and theatrical traditions. It reminds us of the artistry that flourished during the Edo period and invites us to delve deeper into its fascinating history.
