EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "JA'danme, Act ten [of the ChA'shingura]" by renowned artist Kitagawa Utamaro takes us back to a fascinating era in Japanese history. Created between 1799 and 1801, this woodcut masterpiece measures 34.1 x 23 cm and showcases Utamaro's exceptional talent for capturing intricate details with vibrant colors. In this scene, we see a woman engrossed in watching two children play with puppets. The children are reenacting the legendary tale of the revenge of the 47 RAcnin, a group of masterless samurai seeking justice for their fallen lord. As they manipulate the puppets skillfully, their youthful innocence contrasts beautifully with the gravity of their performance. Utamaro's artistry shines through as he expertly portrays not only the physical features but also captures each character's emotions and expressions flawlessly. The woman observing them seems captivated by their enactment, perhaps reminiscing about her own encounters with honor and loyalty. The composition is meticulously balanced, drawing our attention to every element within it – from the delicate folds of clothing to the intricately designed puppets themselves. Through his mastery of color and line work, Utamaro transports us into a world where history comes alive before our eyes. Quint Lox has done an exceptional job preserving this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection that allows us to delve into Japan's rich cultural heritage while appreciating Utamaro's
