Painting Description
"Chūban; Uzuki, Ungai Kakko" is a notable woodblock print by the esteemed Japanese artist Suzuki Harunobu, who was active during the Edo period. This print is part of the series "Fūzoku Shiki Kasen," which translates to "Fashionable Poetic Immortals of the Seasons." Harunobu is renowned for his pioneering work in full-color printing, known as nishiki-e, and his contributions to the ukiyo-e genre, which depicted the "floating world" of Edo's pleasure districts.
The print depicts a courtesan standing on a veranda, turning her head to watch a cuckoo in flight—a motif that often symbolizes unrequited love in Japanese literature and art. The courtesan's kamuro, a young attendant, is nearby, holding a shamisen, a traditional Japanese stringed instrument, and a book, suggesting the cultural refinement of these women. The scene is set in the month of Uzuki, which corresponds to April in the lunar calendar, a time when cuckoos are traditionally heard.
Suzuki Harunobu's signature, "Harunobu ga" (画), confirms the authenticity of the piece, indicating that it was indeed created by the artist himself. The print is noted for its fine impression and good color, although it is mentioned that the colors have slightly faded over time, which is not uncommon for works of this age.
As a work of art from the mid-18th century, "Chūban; Uzuki, Ungai Kakko" is an important example of Harunobu's delicate and lyrical style, which often featured beautiful women and idyllic scenes. It reflects the cultural and artistic values of its time, offering insight into the aesthetics and societal norms of the Edo period. This print remains a significant piece for scholars and enthusiasts of Japanese woodblock prints, contributing to the understanding of Harunobu's oeuvre and the development of the ukiyo-e tradition.
