Kazuya Ushioda
Aika - Hyperrealistic Oil Portrait of a Young Woman in Traditional Attire, 2024

2022

About the Item

Kazuya Ushioda's "Aika" (2024) is a masterful hyperrealistic oil painting on panel, capturing the delicate grace of a young woman adorned in a richly patterned blue kimono. With exceptional attention to detail, Ushioda renders the softness of her skin, the subtle interplay of light on her features, and the intricate folds of fabric with remarkable precision. The contemplative expression, paired with the deep, warm background, evokes a moment of introspection and quiet beauty. Measuring 41 x 33.3 cm (16.14 x 13.11 in), this painting exemplifies Ushioda’s refined technique and ability to breathe life into his subjects. His meticulous brushwork and luminous layering create a depth that blurs the line between painting and reality. The work is in pristine condition, presented unframed, allowing collectors the opportunity to customize its presentation. A stunning addition to any collection, "Aika" embodies both technical mastery and emotional depth, making it an exceptional piece for those who appreciate hyperrealistic portraiture. Artist Bio: I was born in 1983 in Tochigi Prefecture (Japan), where there is a World Heritage site. I decided to become a painter when I was in high school. The high school I went to was in Mashiko-Cho, famous for ceramic art, and I had the opportunity to touch on the basics of ceramic art in class. After that, I went on to Bunsei University of Arts, went on to graduate school, received my master's and doctorate degrees. In the future, I would like to convey the knowledge I have learned not only in Japan but also in overseas university institutions. I work with the intention to play a part in the development of art not only in Japan but also in the world.

Julius Kronberg’s Angelica – A Romantic Heroine of Renaissance Legend
Located in Stockholm, SE
Literary Origins of Angelica The subject of this painting is Angelica, a princess from the epic chivalric romances of the Italian Renaissance. She first appears in Matteo Maria Boiardo’s Orlando Innamorato (1483) and reappears famously in Ludovico Ariosto’s Orlando Furioso (1532). In these poems – part of the Matter of France cycle of Charlemagne and his paladins – Angelica’s extraordinary beauty ensnares many knights, including Orlando (Roland) and his cousin Rinaldo, sparking rivalries and adventures. Ariosto’s narrative particularly highlights Angelica’s tumultuous journey: at one point she is stripped and chained to a rock as a sacrifice to a sea monster (a scene mirroring the myth of Andromeda) before being dramatically rescued by the valiant knight Ruggiero on his winged horse. Ultimately, however, Angelica chooses her own destiny. She falls in love with a humble Saracen soldier, Medoro, whom she nurses back to health, and she returns with him to her far-off Asian kingdom – an affair that drives the heartbroken Orlando to madness. This independent resolution (marrying outside the circle of Christian knights) made Angelica an emblem of feminine agency and romantic idealism in Renaissance literature. Her story remained popular in art and literature through the centuries, symbolizing the allure and elusiveness of love. Kronberg’s Portrayal and Composition In Julius Kronberg...
