EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the talented actor Kirishima Gizaemon in his role as Murasaki Daijin, taken during a performance of the play "Hatsu Akinai Omise Soga" at the Nakamura Theater in January 1767. Created by renowned artist Torii Kiyomitsu, this exquisite piece captures the essence of 18th-century Japanese theater and fashion. Gizaemon's attire is a stunning display of traditional Japanese clothing from the Edo period. His vibrant kimono, adorned with intricate calligraphy and bold colors, reflects the artistry and attention to detail that defined this era. The maroon hues beautifully complement his green boots and carriage boot accessories, adding depth to his character portrayal. Kiyomitsu's mastery of woodblock printing is evident in every stroke, bringing life to Gizaemon's expressive face and capturing his theatrical presence on paper. The composition highlights not only Gizaemon but also elements such as kabuki props like katana blades and geta footwear that were integral to performances during this time. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today, it transports us back to a world where drama unfolded on stage through mesmerizing performances like those delivered by Kirishima Gizaemon. This print serves as a testament to both Kiyomitsu's artistic skill and Japan's rich cultural heritage. It stands proudly among other treasures at the Art Institute Chicago, reminding us of Asia’s enduring influence on global arts for centuries past.
