About the Item

Ichikawa Danjuro in the role of Chobei is an original modern artwork realized by Utagawa Toyokuni (Edo, 1769 – Edo, 1825). Original Woodcut Print. Oban from a Triptych, around 1810. The actor Ichikawa Danjuro sitting on a bench and fretting, behind him a green curtain with peony motif. Signed: Toyokuni ga. Publisher: Yamamotoya Heikichi. Excellent impression, cut, centrefold, a little bit rubbed and soiled. Utagawa Toyokuni (Edo, 1769 – Edo, 1825), also often referred to as Toyokuni I, to distinguish him from the members of his school who took over his go (art-name) after he died, was a great master of ukiyo-e, known in particular for his kabuki actor prints. He was the second head of the renowned Utagawa school of Japanese woodblock artists, and was the artist who elevated it to the position of great fame and power it occupied for the rest of the nineteenth century.
