Ra - Narihira Requests a Painting from a Former Lower
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating woodblock print from the series "Tales of Ise" created by the renowned Japanese artist Shunsho in approximately 1772/73. This masterpiece is a testament to the artistic brilliance of the Katsukawa School during the Edo period. The print depicts the famous poet, Ariwara Narihira, standing before a door in a tranquil courtyard. He is dressed in elegant, fashionable brocade clothing of the 9th century, with a kimono adorned in vibrant green and red colors. Narihira, a man of refined taste, gazes intently at the door, as if contemplating the decision to request a painting from a former lover. The door, made of shoji screens, is subtly open, allowing a glimpse into the interior of a woman's quarters. The print is a beautiful illustration of the rich literary heritage of Japan, as it is based on the "Tales of Ise," a collection of love stories and poetry. The delicate balance of colors, the intricate details of the clothing, and the serene atmosphere of the courtyard all contribute to the timeless beauty of this work of art. Shunsho, also known as Katsumiyagawa Yusuke, was a prominent artist of the Katsukawa School, renowned for his skill in color woodblock printing. His ability to capture the essence of the human experience and the natural world is evident in this stunning print. The print is now a cherished piece in the collections of many prestigious art institutions, including the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences.
