EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Kambara" from Utagawa Kunisada's series "Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido with Beauties," dates back to the 1830s in Japan during the Edo period. The image depicts a solitary woman, dressed in an elegant kimono, seated on the rooftop of a rustic house, overlooking a cold winter landscape. The scene is set at the fifty-third station of the Tokaido Road, Reisho, where travelers would rest before continuing their journey. The woman, identified as Kambara, is adorned in a striking black kimono, accented with intricate gold and red patterns. She wears a traditional headdress, or kinchoro, and a long, flowing obi sash. In her hands, she holds a fan, adding a touch of elegance to her simple attire. Behind her, an ox stands quietly, its breath visible in the chilly air. The oxen were essential for transportation during this era, and their presence underscores the importance of rural life and the connection between people and animals. The print showcases the attention to detail and masterful technique of Utagawa Kunisada, who expertly captured the essence of the season, the beauty of the landscape, and the grace of the woman in this full-length portrait. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period and the enduring appeal of traditional Japanese art.
