Painting Description
"A Complete Shunga Set Entitled 'Shikido Juniban' (Twelve Scenes of the Art of Eros)" is a series of Japanese erotic woodblock prints, known as shunga, created by the renowned artist Torii Kiyonaga (1752–1815). Kiyonaga, a prominent figure in the Torii school of Japanese ukiyo-e art, is celebrated for his elegant and expressive portrayal of figures, particularly in the genre of bijinga (pictures of beautiful women).
The "Shikido Juniban" series, produced during the Edo period, is a significant work within the shunga tradition, which was a popular but often clandestinely circulated form of art during this time. Shunga, meaning "spring pictures," is a euphemistic term for erotic art, and it played a role in the sexual education of the Japanese populace, as well as serving as a talisman for good fortune and a source of entertainment.
This complete set of twelve prints by Kiyonaga exemplifies the artist's mastery of line and form, and his ability to convey intimate scenes with a sense of warmth and realism. Each scene in the series depicts a different aspect of sexual pleasure and the art of love, reflecting the customs and fashions of the late 18th century in Japan. The prints are characterized by their sophisticated composition, the use of delicate color palettes, and the intricate patterns of textiles that adorn the figures.
Kiyonaga's work stands out in the shunga genre for its subtlety and the naturalistic representation of figures, which contrasts with the more explicit and exaggerated depictions found in some shunga of the period. "Shikido Juniban" is not only a testament to Kiyonaga's artistic skill but also provides valuable insight into the cultural and social attitudes towards sexuality in Edo-period Japan.
As an important cultural artifact, "Shikido Juniban" contributes to the understanding of Japanese art history and the broader context of erotic art across cultures. The series is held in high regard by collectors and scholars alike and continues to be studied for its artistic merit and historical significance.
