Caption: "Trio, Part Three" - A Vibrant Glimpse into Edo Period Musical and Literary Culture This polychrome woodblock print, titled "Trio, Part Three" created by the renowned Japanese artist Gakutei (1786-1868), offers a fascinating glimpse into the vibrant cultural scene of 18th-century Japan. The artwork belongs to the artistic school known as Ukiyo-e, which flourished during the Edo period. In this intricately detailed composition, we witness three elegantly attired women engaged in a musical performance within a traditional setting. One woman skillfully plays the samisen, a three-stringed musical instrument central to Japanese classical music. Another holds an open book of poetry or literature while delicately singing along with her companion's melodies. The scene is set against sliding screens adorned with exquisite ink and color depictions of nature and landscapes. These sliding doors reveal glimpses of another room where more musicians may be present or where other activities are taking place. Gakutei's mastery is evident in his meticulous attention to detail and use of vibrant colors that bring life to every element within the print. Through this artwork, he captures not only the beauty but also the harmony between music and literature that was highly valued during this era. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their esteemed collection, this remarkable surimono print serves as a testament to Gakutei's artistic brilliance and provides us with
