About the print
A handsome design pairing two characters from Futatsu Chōchō Kuruwa Nikki, one of the enduring classics of the kabuki and puppet stage (first staged 1749). The main figure, identified by the printed label, is the sumo wrestler Nuregami Chōgorō — one of the play's two rival wrestlers — shown half-length in a black robe against a bank of autumn chrysanthemums, a fan in hand. Above, in a circular inset, appears Oseki, the elder sister of the amateur wrestler Hanaregoma Chōkichi, whose rivalry with Chōgorō drives the drama. The series title, "Konote-gashiwa," refers to the two-faced leaves of the arborvitae — a classical metaphor for duality and for comparing then and now, here framing the pairing of the two roles.
The production quality is a cut above the ordinary: the blocks were cut by Hori Take, one of the leading carvers of the 1850s, and the black robe carries burnished lacquer-like patterning that appears and disappears as the sheet is tilted — a deluxe printing effect (tsuya-zuri) preserved unusually well on this impression.
