"The Actor Nakamura Tomijūrō II (1786-1855)" is a Japanese woodblock print created by the renowned artist Torii Kiyonaga. Kiyonaga was a prominent ukiyo-e artist known for his prints that often depicted the kabuki theatre and the demimonde of Edo (present-day Tokyo). This particular print is part of the genre known as yakusha-e, which focuses on portraits of kabuki actors.

The print captures the likeness of Nakamura Tomijūrō II, a notable kabuki actor of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, who was known for his onnagata roles, in which male actors specialize in playing female characters. The artwork reflects the actor's portrayal of a specific character, capturing the elegance and the expressive nature of the performance. Kiyonaga's mastery of line and color is evident in the intricate details of the costume and the subtle gradations of color that were characteristic of the Torii school's style.

Created during the Edo period, a time when the popularity of kabuki theatre was at its peak, the print serves not only as a piece of art but also as a historical document that offers insights into the cultural and entertainment practices of the time. The actor's pose and expression, along with the stylized rendering of the costume, provide a glimpse into the visual language of kabuki and the aesthetics valued by the Japanese audience of the era.

"The Actor Nakamura Tomijūrō II (1786-1855)" by Torii Kiyonaga is a significant work that contributes to the understanding of Japanese art history, particularly the ukiyo-e tradition and its role in documenting and promoting the performing arts of the Edo period. As a representation of a famous actor of the time, the print is a valuable piece for both art enthusiasts and scholars interested in the intersection of visual art and theatrical performance in Japan.
