"Portrait De L'acteur Osagawa Tsuneyo II Dans Un Role Feminin" is a notable work by the Japanese ukiyo-e artist Katsukawa Shunei. Created during the Edo period, this piece exemplifies the rich tradition of kabuki actor portraits, a genre that flourished in Japan from the late 17th century through the 19th century. Katsukawa Shunei, active from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, was a prominent figure in the Katsukawa school, which specialized in yakusha-e, or actor prints.

The artwork captures the likeness of Osagawa Tsuneyo II, a celebrated kabuki actor known for his performances in onnagata roles, where male actors portrayed female characters. This practice was a distinctive feature of kabuki theatre, as women were prohibited from performing on stage during much of the Edo period. Shunei's portrayal of Tsuneyo II is distinguished by its delicate lines and attention to detail, reflecting the artist's skill in conveying the actor's expressive features and the elaborate costumes typical of kabuki theatre.

In this portrait, Shunei employs a combination of bold and subtle colors, enhancing the visual impact and emotional depth of the subject. The actor's costume is intricately detailed, showcasing the luxurious fabrics and patterns that were characteristic of kabuki attire. The background is often minimalistic, directing the viewer's focus entirely on the actor's figure and expression.

Katsukawa Shunei's work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its documentation of kabuki theatre and its performers. Through his prints, Shunei provides a window into the cultural and social dynamics of Edo-period Japan, offering insights into the popular entertainment and aesthetic values of the time. "Portrait De L'acteur Osagawa Tsuneyo II Dans Un Role Feminin" remains a valuable piece for both art historians and enthusiasts of Japanese culture, illustrating the enduring legacy of ukiyo-e and kabuki theatre.
