EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print by Torii Kiyonaga, titled "Ushi-no-gozen, from the series 'Famous Places of Edo'", transports us back to the vibrant streets of 18th century Japan. The artwork showcases a scene from the Edo period, depicting a group of people in various poses and activities. In the foreground lies Ushi-no-gozen, an elegant woman dressed in exquisite traditional clothing. Her reclining posture exudes grace and tranquility as she holds a kiseru (tobacco pipe) delicately between her fingers. Beside her stands a man, engrossed in conversation or perhaps captivated by her beauty. Their hand gestures suggest animated dialogue within this bustling cityscape. Kiyonaga's meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout the composition. The artist skillfully captures every fold and pattern on their garments using vivid colors that bring life to this woodblock print. The use of chuban format adds further depth and intimacy to the scene. As we explore this artwork, we are transported not only through time but also into Japanese culture during the Tokugawa period. Through his mastery of ukiyo-e (pictures of the floating world), Kiyonaga offers us a glimpse into everyday life in Edo while celebrating its unique heritage. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this piece serves as a testament to Kiyonaga's artistic prowess and continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and cultural significance.
