Mimasu Tokujiro in the Role of San: A Stunning Ukiyo-e Portrait This full-length print showcases the renowned Japanese actor Mimasu Tokujiro (1744-1812) in an exquisite onnagata role as the character San. Onnagata were male actors specializing in female roles in traditional Japanese Kabuki theater. The intricately detailed woodblock print, created in the late 18th century, offers a glimpse into the world of Japanese theater during this period. Mimasu Tokujiro masterfully portrays San, a character from various Japanese legends and folktales. In this particular scene, San is depicted fixing her long, flowing hair while holding a large wooden container in her left hand. The delicate expression on her face, combined with her graceful pose, conveys a sense of tranquility and poise. The intricate details of the print are a testament to the skill and artistry of the ukiyo-e woodblock printing process. The artist has expertly captured the subtle textures of the actor's kimono, the intricate patterns of the container, and the intricate details of San's hairdo. The use of bold, vibrant colors and precise lines adds to the overall beauty and allure of the print. This stunning work of art not only showcases the talent of Mimasu Tokujiro as an actor but also highlights the rich cultural heritage of Japanese theater and the art of ukiyo-e woodblock printing. The print serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of these traditional art forms and the beauty and grace they bring to the world.
