EDITORS COMMENTS
This diptych print by Torii Kiyonaga, titled "Women of the Gay Quarters" offers a glimpse into the vibrant world of 18th or early 19th century Japan. The left part of this exquisite artwork showcases a group of women elegantly dressed in traditional kimonos, seated gracefully amidst a beautifully lit setting. Kiyonaga's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this piece - from the intricate patterns on their garments to the delicate lanterns illuminating their surroundings. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also the inner strength and gracefulness that these women possess. The composition exudes an air of tranquility as these ladies engage in quiet conversation or perhaps indulge in moments of introspection. Their serene expressions hint at stories untold and emotions hidden beneath their composed façades. As we admire this masterpiece from Kiyonaga's artistic school during Japan's Edo period, we are transported back in time to witness a society where art and culture thrived. This linocut print serves as a testament to both Kiyonaga's mastery as an artist and his dedication to preserving Japanese traditions through his work. Now housed within the esteemed collection of the State A Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow, this remarkable piece continues to captivate viewers with its timeless elegance and cultural significance.
