Keisai Eisen (1790–1848) was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist who specialized in the bijin-ga genre, focusing on beautiful women, as well as landscapes and kabuki actors. Among his diverse body of work, Eisen is also known for his contributions to the shunga genre, a type of Japanese erotic art. One notable work in this genre is "Shunga-blatt. Zwölf Stilvolle Sterne" (circa 1830/35), which translates to "Shunga Sheet. Twelve Stylish Stars." This work is a testament to Eisen's mastery in capturing the intricacies of human desire and emotion, all while adhering to the aesthetic and technical demands of the ukiyo-e tradition.

"Shunga-blatt. Zwölf Stilvolle Sterne" is part of the broader tradition of shunga, which was widely produced and circulated in Japan during the Edo period (1603–1868). Shunga artworks often depicted sexual scenes in an explicit manner but were also appreciated for their artistic qualities and humor. Eisen's contribution to this genre is significant, as his works are celebrated for their sophisticated compositions, vibrant use of color, and the delicate rendering of figures and fabrics.

The piece "Shunga-blatt. Zwölf Stilvolle Sterne" is characterized by its depiction of intimate scenes that are both sensual and elegant. Eisen's ability to convey the beauty of the human form, along with the emotional depth of the subjects, showcases his skill as an artist deeply embedded in the cultural and artistic practices of his time. The work reflects the societal attitudes towards sexuality and art during the Edo period, serving as a valuable historical document that offers insights into the complexities of Japanese culture.

As with many shunga works, "Shunga-blatt. Zwölf Stilvolle Sterne" was likely intended for a diverse audience, including both men and women, and was consumed in a variety of contexts, from private enjoyment to being shared among couples as a form of sexual education. The title's reference to "Twelve Stylish Stars" suggests a thematic or compositional structure that could align with the lunar calendar months or zodiac signs, a common practice in Japanese art to imbue works with deeper meaning and symbolism.

In the broader context of Keisai Eisen's oeuvre, "Shunga-blatt. Zwölf Stilvolle Sterne" exemplifies the artist's versatility and his ability to navigate different genres within ukiyo-e. His work in the shunga genre contributes to our understanding of the multifaceted nature of Japanese woodblock printing and the cultural practices surrounding sexuality and art during the Edo period. Eisen's shunga, including this piece, remains an important part of the artistic legacy of ukiyo-e, offering a nuanced perspective on the human condition through the lens of Japanese erotic art.
