EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour woodblock print titled "Standing woman with a parasol" transports us to the elegant world of traditional Japanese culture. Created by Toyokuni II, also known as Utagawa Toyoshige, this exquisite artwork captures the grace and beauty of a female figure in stunning detail. The standing woman is dressed in a vibrant kimono, showcasing intricate patterns and rich colors that symbolize her status and personality. Her traditional attire is complemented by wooden shoes called geta, adding an authentic touch to her overall appearance. With a parasol delicately held above her head, she exudes poise and serenity amidst the bustling ukiyo-e scene depicted in the background. The artist's mastery of color and composition draws our attention to every subtle nuance – from the folds of fabric cascading down her kimono to the gentle curve of her posture. Displayed at Musee Guimet in Paris, France, this timeless masterpiece offers us a glimpse into Japan's artistic heritage. It serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of these iconic prints that continue to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide. As we admire this portrait, we are transported back in time to an era where tradition meets artistic expression. Through its vivid imagery and meticulous craftsmanship, this woodblock print invites us to appreciate both the aesthetic beauty and cultural significance it represents.
