EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sixth Prescription Onna Imagawa, Valuable Prescriptions for Young Girls" transports us to Japan in the late 18th century. The image, created by Torii Kiyonaga, showcases a mesmerizing scene filled with intricate details. In the foreground, we see a man sitting against a vibrant red mattress while diligently brushing his teeth. Next to him sits a kamuro, the youngest employee of a courtesan. Their presence adds an element of youthfulness and innocence to the composition. Behind them stands a graceful courtesan, exuding elegance and poise. A second kamuro can be seen holding a tray in her hands, ready to assist her mistress. The atmosphere is further enhanced by tree branches swaying gently in the rain-filled background. Kiyonaga's masterful use of color woodcut technique brings this moment to life on paper. Every brushstroke captures the essence of Japanese culture during that era - from the meticulous depiction of clothing patterns to the subtle expressions on each character's face. As we gaze upon this artwork from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time and immersed in the beauty and intricacy of traditional Japanese society. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation that allows us to appreciate not only Kiyonaga's talent but also gain insight into life during this period in Japan's history.
