Toyohara Kunichika Japanese Triptych Woodblock Print of Kabuki Theater Actors
About the Item
A wonderfully composed, beautifully, and richly colored triptych woodblock print by famed Japanese artist Toyohara Kunichika featuring four dramatic and quite intense Kabuki theatre actors. The arresting and bold colors really make this scene something to behold.
Toyohara Kunichika (豊原 国周; 30 June 1835 – 1 July 1900) was a ukiyo-e Japanese woodblock print artist who as a youth studied under renowned printmaker, Utagawa Kunisada. Kunichika became quite well known for his works of yakusha-e - woodblock prints of Edo and Meiji kabuki actors and scenes from popular plays of the time.
From an impressive collection of Japanese artworks and prints (of which we will be listing other prints).
Would be a great addition to any Japanese art or print collection or an eye-catching stand-alone accent piece once framed.
Approximate dimensions when fully displayed: 14.5" high, 29.5" wide (each sheet approximately 14.5" x 10").

View AllMizuno Toshikata Japanese Woodblock Print First Call of the Warbler, 36 Beauties
Located in Studio City, CA
An absolutely gorgeous and relatively rare original woodblock print by Japanese artist/printmaker Mizuno Toshikata titled "First Call of the Warbler" from his series Thirty-Six Selected Beauties (“Sanju Rokka Sen”) which he created to illustrate the daily activities of various Japanese women from different time periods and walks of life. This work features a geisha practicing the shamisen under the bright light of a full moon as the night's first warbler songbird joins her on a cherry tree branch just outside her window. It is a quite beautiful and serene scene and one of Toshikata most coveted images.
This work was created circa 1892 during the Mejia period (1868-1912). It is signed and sealed by the artist with the image.
Mizuno Toshikata was born on March 6, 1866 as Mizuno Kumejiro in Tokyo. When he was 13 years old, his father sent him to the printmaking school of Tsukioka Yoshitoshi. Later Toshikata Mizuno...
