EDITORS COMMENTS
Wanting to Meet Someone: A Courtesan of the Kaei Period (1848-1853)," is a captivating woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi in 1888. This masterpiece is part of the series "Thirty-two Aspects of Customs and Manners," which showcases various aspects of Japanese life during the Meiji Era (1868-1912). The image depicts a beautiful courtesan, dressed in the traditional kimono of the Kaei Era (1848-1853), anticipating the arrival of a suitor. Her expression is one of quiet longing, as she looks away from the viewer, lost in thought. The courtesan's black hair is styled in an elaborate updo, adorned with delicate accessories. Her kimono is a stunning display of color and pattern, with a checkered design in shades of red and black. The print is a prime example of the ukiyo-e (floating world) style, which emphasizes the beauty and ephemerality of life. The intricate details of the courtesan's clothing and accessories, as well as the subtle use of color and shading, demonstrate Yoshitoshi's mastery of the woodblock printing technique. The courtesan's profession and anticipation for a meeting are themes that resonate across cultures and time periods. Her traditional attire and the Japanese setting add a unique and intriguing dimension to the concept of anticipation. This woodblock print is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or art history, and a testament to the enduring appeal of Yoshitoshi's work. This beautiful work of art is now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it can be appreciated by visitors from around the world. The print serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the beauty of traditional clothing and customs.
