EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Ichikawa Danjūrō VII Preparing New Year" transports us back to the vibrant Edo period in Japan, between 1615 and 1868. Created around 1830 by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Kunisada, this polychrome woodblock print captures the essence of a festive season. Intricately detailed, the image showcases Ichikawa Danjūrō VII, a celebrated Kabuki actor of his time, engrossed in preparing gifts for the upcoming New Year celebrations. The use of ink, color, and metallic pigments on paper brings out an exquisite richness that is characteristic of traditional Japanese art. Measuring approximately 8 1/4 by 21 inches (21 by 53 cm), this shikishiban surimono print immerses viewers into a world where tradition meets theatricality. It offers a glimpse into the customs and rituals surrounding New Year festivities during that era. Utagawa Kunisada's mastery shines through as he skillfully portrays not only Ichikawa Danjūrō VII but also captures the spirit of anticipation and excitement that accompanies this joyous occasion. The attention to detail in every brushstroke allows us to appreciate both the artistic technique employed and gain insight into historical cultural practices. This remarkable piece from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection serves as a testament to Japan's rich artistic heritage while providing an opportunity for viewers to delve into its fascinating history
