EDITORS COMMENTS
This color woodblock print titled "Woman of the Yoshiwara" is a masterpiece created by the renowned Japanese artist Kitagawa Utamaro, who lived from 1753 to 1806. The print showcases Utamaro's exceptional talent in capturing the beauty and grace of women during the Edo period. The image depicts a woman dressed in an exquisite kimono, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors. Her delicate features are meticulously portrayed, reflecting Utamaro's attention to detail and his ability to convey emotions through his art. The woman's gaze is both alluring and mysterious, inviting viewers into her world. Yoshiwara was a famous red-light district in Edo (now Tokyo), known for its entertainment establishments where courtesans resided. This print offers a glimpse into the life of one such woman from Yoshiwara, highlighting her elegance and allure. Measuring approximately 32.4 x 22.6 cm (12 3/4 x 8 7/8 in. ), this woodblock print exemplifies Utamaro's mastery of this traditional technique. Each color has been carefully applied using separate carved blocks, resulting in a rich palette that brings depth and vibrancy to the artwork. The Liszt Collection proudly presents this extraordinary piece as part of their extensive collection of Japanese prints. It serves as a testament to Utamaro's artistic brilliance while offering us an insight into Japan's fascinating history and culture during the Edo period.
