Kurtisane Beim Go-spiel, also known as "Courtesan Playing Go," is a notable woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Kunisada (1786–1865). Kunisada, also known by his later name Utagawa Toyokuni III, was one of the most prolific and popular designers of ukiyo-e woodblock prints during the Edo period. His works predominantly featured kabuki actors, beautiful women (bijin-ga), and scenes from classical literature.

The print "Kurtisane Beim Go-spiel" exemplifies Kunisada's expertise in capturing the elegance and poise of courtesans, a common subject in ukiyo-e art. The title translates to "Courtesan Playing Go," indicating that the artwork depicts a high-ranking courtesan engaged in the traditional Japanese board game of Go. This game, known for its deep strategic complexity, was often associated with intellectual refinement and leisure among the upper echelons of society.

Kunisada's portrayal of the courtesan is marked by meticulous attention to detail, from the intricate patterns of her kimono to the delicate features of her face. The artist's use of vibrant colors and dynamic compositions reflects the aesthetic values of the Edo period, emphasizing both beauty and sophistication. The background and setting of the print often include elements that suggest a luxurious environment, further highlighting the courtesan's elevated status.

This print not only serves as a testament to Kunisada's artistic skill but also provides insight into the cultural practices and social dynamics of the time. The depiction of a courtesan playing Go suggests a blend of beauty and intellect, challenging contemporary perceptions of courtesans as mere entertainers. Instead, it portrays them as cultured individuals who participated in the intellectual and artistic life of the period.

"Kurtisane Beim Go-spiel" remains a significant piece within the ukiyo-e genre, illustrating the intersection of art, culture, and society in Edo-period Japan. It continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and cultural significance, reflecting the enduring legacy of Utagawa Kunisada's work.
