'March' Beauty print - Kunisada I Utagawa (1786-1865) - Japan - Edoperioden (1600-1868)
Artist: Kunisada I Utagawa (1786-1865)
Title: March
Date: 1815-1842
Size: 24.7 x 35.8 cm
Condition: Covered wormhole at the top, small holes at the bottom, soiling and minor stains, discolouration, paper residue on the back.
Kunisada’s pictures reflect the culture of Japan in the years leading up to the country’s opening to the West. His first book illustrations were published in 1807, his first actor portrait the following year, alongside theatrical scenes and courtesans, yakusha-e was his preferred genre amidst all his popular and extensive output. As he painted very many of these, continuing the stout realism of his teacher, he acquired the sobriquet 'Yakusha-e no Kunisada' – Kunisada, the actor painter. From 1830 he continued the development of the Utagawa school, and from 1844 onwards signed his works Toyokuni III. In his numerous bijin-ga he clung to the ideal of beauty prevalent at the time and many of his prints show elegant ladies in fine kimono and accessories.
