EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Third Ichikawa Yaozo as a Daimyo Standing Under a Maple Tree" transports viewers back to the vibrant world of 18th-century Japan. Created by Shunsho, a renowned artist from the Edo period, this polychrome woodblock print showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. In this artwork, we see Ichikawa Yaozo III, an esteemed actor known for his theatrical performances. Dressed in traditional Japanese attire, Yaozo stands majestically under a maple tree, symbolizing the changing seasons and the fleeting nature of life. The rich colors and intricate patterns of his kimono highlight the elegance and sophistication of the era. Shunsho's masterful use of ink and color on paper brings depth and dimension to every brushstroke. The hand-held fan held by Yaozo adds a touch of gracefulness to his pose while also serving as an emblematic prop in Japanese theater. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this heritage art piece is not only visually stunning but also provides valuable insights into Japanese culture during that time. It exemplifies ukiyo-e, a popular genre depicting scenes from everyday life or famous actors like Yaozo. "The Third Ichikawa Yaozo as a Daimyo Standing Under a Maple Tree" serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact—a testament to Shunsho's skillful craftsmanship and its enduring appeal throughout centuries.
