EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the talented actors Segawa Kikunojo I and Nakamura Shichisaburo II in their roles as Ochiyo and Hanbei, respectively, in the renowned play "Higashiyama Gojitsu Yaoya Hanbei". Created by Torii Kiyonobu II in 1744 during the Edo period, this hand-colored woodblock print beautifully captures the essence of Japanese theater. The image transports us to a vibrant world filled with drama and emotion. The actors are dressed impeccably in traditional costumes, adorned with intricate details and vibrant colors that reflect the fashion trends of eighteenth-century Japan. Their kimono-clad figures stand out against a beige backdrop, drawing our attention to their expressive faces. Segawa Kikunojo I embodies Ochiyo's character flawlessly, while Nakamura Shichisaburo II brings Hanbei to life with his powerful presence. Both actors display remarkable skill as they portray these complex characters on stage at the Nakamura Theater. Their performances captivate audiences with every gesture and expression. Through this photo print, we catch a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of Asia. It serves as a testament to Torii Kiyonobu II's mastery of block printing techniques and his ability to capture human emotions through art.
