"Acteur Dans Le Role D'oboshi Rikiya" is a notable woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865), also known as Toyokuni III. Kunisada was one of the most prolific and popular designers of ukiyo-e woodblock prints in the 19th century, particularly known for his portraits of kabuki actors, beautiful women, and scenes from Japanese literature and history.

This particular print, "Acteur Dans Le Role D'oboshi Rikiya," depicts a kabuki actor in the role of Oboshi Rikiya, a character from the famous Japanese historical tale of the Forty-seven Ronin, also known as the Akō incident. The story, which has been adapted into numerous plays and artworks, revolves around a group of samurai who avenge the death of their master, Asano Naganori, after he was compelled to commit seppuku (ritual suicide) due to a conflict with a court official.

Kunisada's portrayal of Oboshi Rikiya captures the dramatic intensity and emotional depth characteristic of kabuki theater. The actor is depicted in elaborate costume and makeup, which are integral to the kabuki tradition, emphasizing the character's noble status and the gravity of his mission. The intricate details of the costume, the expressive facial features, and the dynamic composition all highlight Kunisada's mastery in capturing the essence of kabuki performance.

The print is a fine example of the ukiyo-e genre, which flourished during the Edo period (1603–1868) and often focused on the "floating world" of entertainment, including kabuki theater, courtesans, and urban life. Kunisada's works, including this print, are celebrated for their vibrant colors, meticulous craftsmanship, and ability to convey the cultural and social nuances of the time.

"Acteur Dans Le Role D'oboshi Rikiya" not only serves as a testament to Kunisada's artistic prowess but also provides valuable insight into the cultural and historical context of Edo-period Japan. The print remains a significant piece for both art historians and enthusiasts of Japanese culture, reflecting the enduring legacy of ukiyo-e and kabuki theater.
