This precious print represents Yōkihi, the main character of the namesake play written by Komparu Zenchiku (1405-1470?), in which the Chinese Tang dynasty emperor Genshō grieves over his favorite mistress Yōhiki. The beautiful woman wears a precious red kimono decorated by floral motifs and gilded and silver insert.
Kogyo Tsukioka (Tokio 1869-1927) was born in Tokyo in 1869 as Hanyu Sadanosuke. The adopted son of the famed ukiyo-e artist Yoshitoshi, Kogyo studied both painting and woodblock printing under him. He later studied with Gekko. Kogyo did a number of nature studies and Sino-Japanese war prints but is primarily known for his images of the Noh theatre, a traditional aristocratic form of Japanese performing arts. Unlike most classical ukiyo-e prints, his works have an almost painterly quality and use much gold and silver for the Noh costume embellishments. These prints often required very skill engravers and printers to produce.
