EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating woodblock print titled "Kan'u (Guan Yu), 1845-48" showcases the artistic brilliance of Kuniyoshi Utagawa. This exquisite piece, housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK, is a testament to Utagawa's mastery of nishiki-e technique. Depicting Kan'u, also known as Guan Yu, a legendary figure from Chinese history and mythology, this print emanates strength and nobility. The use of bokashi adds depth and tonal gradation to the composition, enhancing its visual impact. Utagawa skillfully captures Kan'u's commanding presence through intricate details and vibrant colors. As one gazes upon this artwork, they are transported into an era where honor and loyalty were revered virtues. Kan'u stands tall as a guardian figure embodying these qualities. This portrait not only celebrates Kan'u but also serves as a window into Japanese culture during the 19th century. It exemplifies the fusion between traditional Japanese art forms with influences from China. The divine aura surrounding Kan'u evokes feelings of reverence and awe. His unwavering faithfulness shines through his piercing gaze, reminding us of the power that lies within virtue. Through this remarkable illustration by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of the enduring beauty found in religious iconography across different cultures. This print is a testament to both Utagawa's artistic prowess and our fascination with deities throughout history.
