【Product details】
Immerse yourself in the festive spirit of the New Year with this vibrant triptych by renowned Utagawa Kunisada (1786-1865), also known as Toyokuni III. Published by Yamaguchi, this woodblock print captures a lively scene of elegant figures enjoying traditional games beneath the full bloom of plum blossoms—a symbol of good fortune and joy. As they engage in playful activities with shuttlecocks and handballs, the artwork exudes a celebratory atmosphere.
Crafted during the Edo period, this Genji-e (Genji picture) reflects the aesthetic sensibilities and cultural festivities of the time. While the print bears the marks of its age with some staining, creases, fading, small holes, and slight tears, these imperfections do not diminish its historical charm or the skillful artistry it represents.
This triptych is a testament to Kunisada’s masterful depiction of fabric patterns and the elegant postures of the figures, making it a valuable piece for collectors of Japanese ukiyo-e art and enthusiasts of cultural history.
We have photographed the three pieces side by side for the purposes of photography, but in reality, each is an independent single print.
Dimensions of a panel: approx. H 35.6 cm W 24.5 cm
