"Owariya-nai Kicho (The Courtesan Kicho of the Owariya), from the series Keijo Dochu Sugoroku (Sex Games in the Brothel District)" is a notable work by Keisai Eisen, a Japanese ukiyo-e artist active during the late Edo period. This piece is also subtitled "Mitate Yoshiwara Gojusantsui: Fujieda (Parody of the Fifty-three Stations in the Yoshiwara: Fujieda Station)." Eisen, renowned for his landscapes and bijin-ga (pictures of beautiful women), often depicted the pleasure quarters and the women who inhabited them, offering a glimpse into the courtesan culture of Edo-period Japan.

This particular work is part of a larger series that playfully combines the theme of travel—specifically, the famous Tōkaidō road, which connected Edo (modern-day Tokyo) to Kyoto—with the world of the Yoshiwara, the licensed red-light district in Edo. By juxtaposing the courtesans with the stations of the Tōkaidō, Eisen creates a metaphorical journey through the pleasures and allure of the Yoshiwara. "Owariya-nai Kicho" specifically references Fujieda Station, the 22nd station along the Tōkaidō, cleverly integrating the geographical journey with the sensual and ephemeral experiences found within the Yoshiwara.

The series title, "Keijo Dochu Sugoroku," suggests a game-like exploration of the brothel districts, with each print representing a 'stop' along a route filled with erotic encounters, thus blending the physical journey with the imagined or vicarious experiences of the pleasure quarters. The subtitle "Mitate Yoshiwara Gojusantsui" further emphasizes the work as a mitate-e, a genre of Japanese art that involves a playful or parodic reinterpretation of a well-known theme or subject. In this case, Eisen reimagines the iconic "Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō" by Hiroshige, substituting the scenic landscapes and travel vignettes with scenes from the Yoshiwara.

Eisen's work is characterized by his rich color palette, attention to detail, and the sensuous portrayal of his subjects. "Owariya-nai Kicho" exemplifies his skill in capturing the beauty and complexity of courtesan culture, making it a valuable piece for understanding both the art and social history of the Edo period. Through this series, Eisen not only showcases his artistic prowess but also provides insight into the cultural and erotic fantasies of Edo-period Japan, making his work an important part of the ukiyo-e tradition.
