EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Cooling off at Nakasu (Nakasu no suzumi)" by Torii Kiyonaga, we are transported back to the vibrant streets of 18th century Japan. The scene depicts three elegantly dressed women seeking respite from the scorching summer heat in the famous pleasure quarters of Nakasu. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this composition. The women, adorned in exquisite kimonos and elaborate obis, exude grace and beauty as they take a moment to rest under the shade of a tree. Their colorful garments, intricately patterned with delicate motifs, add depth and visual interest to the artwork. Kiyonaga's mastery of block printing technique shines through in his depiction of textures and colors. The use of black ink against a beige background creates a striking contrast that enhances the overall composition. Each brushstroke seems purposeful and deliberate, capturing not only the physical appearance but also conveying a sense of tranquility and serenity. This print is part of Kiyonaga's series "A Collection of Contemporary Beauties" which celebrates the allure and charm found within Japan's pleasure districts during the Edo period. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation, offering us a glimpse into a world long gone yet forever preserved through art. Displayed proudly at the Art Institute Chicago, this masterpiece continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and cultural significance. It stands as a testament to Torii Kiyonaga's skill as an artist and his ability to transport us across time and space through his evocative prints.
