EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, created by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Kunisada, showcases the esteemed actor Ichikawa Danjuro in the role of Kajiwara Genta Kageki, circa 1820. The image transports us back to the Edo period of Japan, a time marked by exquisite art, drama, and fashion. Danjuro, a prominent figure in Kabuki theater, is depicted here in full regalia, wearing a striking kimono adorned with intricate patterns and bold colors. His hakama, a traditional divided skirt worn with a kimono, is cinched at the waist with a sash, adding to the grandeur of his appearance. The actor's expressive posture and the slight tilt of his head convey a sense of deep concentration and introspection, as if he is lost in thought or preparing for an important scene. The background of the print is filled with intricate details, including the ornate design of the theater's stage and the calligraphy that adorns the banners and scrolls. The print also features various other Kabuki actors, including Gototei, Guy, and Kochoro, who are dressed in their own elaborate costumes, adding to the vibrant and dynamic atmosphere of the scene. This woodblock print, titled "Kajiwara Kagesue as Kajiwara Genta Kageki" or "Gentleman Kageki of the Kajiwara Clan," is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan during the 1820s. The print is a stunning example of Utagawa Kunisada's mastery of the woodblock printing technique and his ability to capture the essence of Kabuki theater and the fashion of the time. The print is currently housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences from around the world.
