EDITORS COMMENTS
This polychrome woodblock print, titled "Courtesan by a Lantern, Fire" is part of the series Five Elements for the Bunsai Poetry Group, a Guide to the Yoshiwara Pleasure Quarters. Created around 1820 during Japan's Edo period, this artwork showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic mastery of Totoya Hokkei. In this scene, we are transported to the vibrant world of the Yoshiwara Pleasure Quarters at nightfall. A courtesan stands elegantly in full-length attire, illuminated by the soft glow of a lantern. The warm hues and delicate details bring her beauty to life as she captivates viewers with her alluring presence. Hokkei's skillful use of ink and color on paper creates depth and dimension within this woodblock print. Every brushstroke captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys emotions that lie beneath her serene expression. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly houses this extraordinary piece from Hokkei's oeuvre.
