EDITORS COMMENTS
This color woodblock print, titled "Hitomoto of the Daimonjiya with Attendants Senkaku and Banki, Japan" transports us back to 18th century Edo period. Created by renowned artist Kitagawa Utamaro, this exquisite piece showcases his mastery in depicting the beauty and grace of women in ukiyo-e art. The print features a group of elegant women adorned in traditional attire and intricate hairstyles. The central figure, Hitomoto of the Daimonjiya, stands out with her striking shimada hairstyle embellished with delicate hairpins. Her presence is complemented by her attendants Senkaku and Banki who exude poise and sophistication. Utamaro's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork - from the vibrant colors that bring life to each character's kimono to the meticulous rendering of their facial expressions. Through his skillful printing technique, he captures not only their physical appearance but also their inner essence. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece at the Art Institute Chicago's gallery dedicated to arts of Asia, we are transported into a world where tradition meets artistic brilliance. This woodblock print serves as a testament to Japan's rich cultural heritage and its enduring influence on art worldwide. With its timeless beauty and historical significance, Utamaro's "Hitomoto of the Daimonjiya with Attendants Senkaku and Banki" continues to captivate viewers today just as it did centuries
