EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, created by the renowned artist Shunsho, showcases Ichimura Uzaemon IX in an extraordinary role as a male fox disguised as the sake seller Iseya, performing in the dance sequence "Myoto-zake Kawaranu Nakanaka" from the second part of the Kabuki play "Chigo Torii Kitsune" (Heavenly Child - The Fox Leaps Through the Shrine Gate), staged at the Ichimura Theater in the eleventh month of 1777. The print is a stunning example of the Katsukawa School's artistic mastery during the Edo period. Uzaemon, dressed in the intricately designed and vibrant garments of the sake seller, is depicted on the left side of the print. His fox spirit identity, Kitsune Gaō, is suggested by the subtle yet distinct fox ears and tail peeking out from under his kimono. The artist expertly captures the actor's expressive face and the fluidity of his movements, emphasizing the theatricality and drama of the performance. On the right side of the print, Nakamura Tomijuro I is depicted as a female fox disguised as the beancake peddler Hyugaya. The contrast between the masculine and feminine roles, as well as the fox spirit identities, adds an intriguing layer to the print, reflecting the gender fluidity and transformative nature of Kabuki theater. The print's rich colors, intricate details, and dynamic composition make it a valuable piece of Japanese art and cultural heritage. It offers a glimpse into the world of Kabuki theater during the eighteenth century, showcasing the performers' skill, theatricality, and the captivating stories they brought to life.
