EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a modern rendition of the traditional Japanese Sarugaku play, Shikisanba. Sarugaku is a genre of folk theater that originated in the Edo period (1603-1868) and is characterized by its lively and humorous performances. The play Shikisanba, also known as shikisamba, is a popular narrative that revolves around the god of agriculture, Senzai, and his encounters with the demon Sanbaso. In this print, three actors gracefully embody the roles of Senzai, Okina, and Sanbaso, as they bring the story to life on stage. Senzai, depicted in the center, is shown with a serene expression, holding a fan and a rice scoop, symbolizing his role as the god of agriculture. To his left, Okina, the master of ceremonies, stands with a fan and a drum, ready to introduce the characters and guide the audience through the story. To Senzai's right, the menacing figure of Sanbaso emerges, with a demon mask and a fan adorned with a skull, embodying the mischievous spirit of the demon. The intricate details of the woodblock print reveal the artists' mastery of the medium, with each actor's facial expressions and costumes expertly rendered. The muted colors and delicate brushwork evoke a sense of tranquility and harmony, transporting the viewer to the world of Japanese folk theater. The print is a testament to the enduring appeal of Shikisanba and the rich cultural heritage of Sarugaku, which continues to captivate audiences to this day.
