EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant polychrome woodblock print by Hokusai, titled "A Courtesan on Parade, Dressed in Many Robes" offers a captivating glimpse into the world of 18th-19th century Japan. The artist skillfully depicts a courtesan adorned in multiple robes, showcasing the opulence and intricate details of her attire. The courtesan's full-length kimono is meticulously rendered with vivid colors and delicate patterns that reflect the fashion trends of the Edo period. Hokusai's masterful use of ink and color on paper brings out every fold and texture, creating a sense of depth and realism. As we observe this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported to an era where courtesans played a significant role in Japanese society. Known for their beauty, grace, and refined skills such as calligraphy and artistic expression, these women held esteemed positions within their profession. Hokusai's portrayal captures not only the physical appearance but also hints at the complexity behind this woman's occupation. Through his artistry, he invites us to contemplate her life beyond what meets the eye – her dreams, aspirations, struggles perhaps hidden beneath layers of exquisite clothing. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this woodblock print serves as a testament to Hokusai's enduring legacy as one of Japan's most celebrated artists. It allows us to appreciate both his technical prowess and his ability to evoke emotions through visual storytelling. With each brushstroke preserved over centuries thanks to Heritage
