EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Portrait of the Actor Danjuro VIII in the role of Ebizako no Ju matched with background image of Ebi restaurant," is a masterpiece created by the renowned artists Utagawa Kunisada and Ando Hiroshige in 1853. The print is part of the series "Famous Places for Kaiseki in the Eastern Capital." Danjuro VIII, also known as Ichikawa Danjuro VIII, is depicted in the print wearing a striking costume and elaborate makeup for his role as Ebizako no Ju in a Kabuki play. The actor's intense facial expression and detailed hairstyle, complete with a traditional helmet, are expertly rendered in the print. The background of the print features an image of an Ebi (shrimp) restaurant, adding an interesting contrast to the portrait of the actor. The intricate details of the restaurant's architecture and the lively scene of people enjoying their meal are beautifully captured by Hiroshige. The use of color in the print is exceptional, with vibrant hues adding depth and dimension to both the portrait and the background scene. The print is a testament to the artists' skill in capturing the essence of the Edo period, with its fusion of entertainment, fashion, and heritage. This print is a valuable addition to any collection of Japanese art or history, and its intricate details and rich colors make it a visual feast for the eyes. The print is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
