EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Entertainers of Nakazu" takes us back to the vibrant world of 18th-century Japan. Created by Kiyonaga, Torii, a renowned artist of the time, this colour woodblock print showcases a mesmerizing collection of contemporary beauties from the pleasure quarters. The image is divided into two panels forming a diptych. In one panel, we see a group of elegantly dressed women seated gracefully in their kimonos. Their delicate features and serene expressions exude an air of sophistication and allure. The other panel presents men standing confidently alongside these enchanting entertainers, creating an intriguing dynamic between genders. Every detail in this artwork speaks volumes about Japanese culture during that era - from the intricate patterns on their kimonos to the meticulous brushstrokes used to depict their expressive faces. It is evident that great care was taken in capturing not only the physical beauty but also the essence and spirit of each individual portrayed. Displayed at The Art Institute of Chicago as part of the Clarence Buckingham Collection, this masterpiece continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. Through this print by Bridgeman Images, we are transported into a world where entertainment thrived amidst opulent surroundings and where artistry flourished within every aspect of life in Japan's pleasure quarters.
