EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century woodblock print by Toshusai Sharaku transports us to the vibrant world of Japanese kabuki theater. The actor Sawamura Sojuro III takes center stage, embodying the character of Ogishi Kurando with remarkable intensity and skill. Dressed in traditional attire, his expressive facial expression captures a moment of surprise that leaves viewers intrigued. The rich colors and intricate details of this colour woodblock print showcase the artistry and craftsmanship of the Edo period. As we gaze upon this piece at the Art Institute Chicago, we are reminded of Japan's cultural heritage and its enduring love for theatrical performances. Sawamura Sojuro III was renowned for his talent as a kabuki actor during the Tokugawa period. With hand-held fan in hand, he commands attention on stage, captivating audiences with every gesture and movement. His portrayal of Ogishi Kurando is both powerful and nuanced, reflecting his mastery as a performer. Toshusai Sharaku's artistic vision shines through in this exquisite print, capturing not only the physical likeness but also conveying emotion and drama within a single frame. It serves as a testament to both Sharaku's skill as an artist and Sawamura Sojuro III's prowess as an actor. As we admire this piece at Kinokuniya Gallery, it reminds us that art has no boundaries – transcending time, culture, and language to connect us all through shared human experiences.
