EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ladies Waiting Chiyoda Castle Sword Practice" transports us back to the Meiji period in Japan, specifically to the year 1895. The image is part of a triptych album featuring polychrome woodblock prints created by Yoshu Hashimoto Chikanobu, a renowned Japanese artist from 1838 to 1912. In this scene, we witness a group of elegant ladies eagerly awaiting a sword practice session within the grand walls of Chiyoda Castle. Their vibrant kimonos and intricate hairstyles reflect the fashion trends of that era. The attention to detail in their attire showcases the skillful use of ink and color on paper by Chikanobu. The composition also captures an element of traditional Japanese theater known as puppet kyōgen. This art form combines puppetry with comedic performances, adding an intriguing layer to this visual narrative. Measuring approximately 13 7/8 x 9 1/4 inches (352 x 235 cm), these prints are not only visually striking but also serve as historical artifacts that provide insight into life during the Meiji period. Through Artokoloro's meticulous reproduction process, this print allows us to appreciate and admire Chikanobu's artistic prowess while offering a glimpse into Japan's rich cultural heritage.
