EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned actor Sanogawa Ichimatsu I in his mesmerizing portrayal of Kumenosuke in the play "Na no Hana Akebono Soga". Created by Torii Kiyomasu in 1741 during Japan's Edo period, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of traditional Japanese theater. Ichimatsu I, dressed in an exquisite kimono and adorned with intricate accessories, exudes a sense of elegance and grace. His expressive eyes and poised posture reveal his mastery as he embodies the character of Kumenosuke with utmost conviction. The hand-colored woodblock print adds depth to the image, enhancing its visual impact. The black cartouche surrounding the scene further emphasizes its importance within Japanese artistic tradition. As we delve into this piece, we are transported back to 18th-century Japan, where kabuki theater held immense cultural significance. The vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail highlight not only Ichimatsu I's talent but also Torii Kiyomasu's skill as an artist. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago, this photograph offers us a glimpse into a world rich with history and theatrical brilliance. It serves as a testament to both the enduring legacy of actors like Sanogawa Ichimatsu I and their contribution to Asian arts. Through this remarkable artwork, we can appreciate not only the beauty of traditional Japanese costume design but also gain insight into centuries-old entertainment forms that continue to captivate audiences worldwide.
