EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, created by the renowned artist Shunsho, showcases Ichikawa Danjuro V in the role of Soga no Goro Tokimune in the Kabuki play "Sakai-cho Soga" performed at the Nakamura Theater in the first month of 1771. The Edo period print, a masterpiece from the Katsukawa School, vividly portrays Danjuro V as the brave and determined Soga no Goro, clad in a striking, intricately designed costume. The actor is depicted riding a rearing horse, his expression filled with determination and resolve, while a loyal dog and a fearless monkey accompany him. The vibrant colors and bold lines bring the scene to life, transporting us back to the theatrical world of 18th century Japan. The print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan and the enduring legacy of Kabuki theatre. With its intricate details and dynamic composition, this print is a must-have for any collection of Asian art or theatre history.
