"Hayakawa Hatsuse and Nakamura Shichisaburo 1702" is a notable work by Torii Kiyonobu, a prominent Japanese artist of the Edo period. Torii Kiyonobu (1664-1729) was a pioneering figure in the ukiyo-e genre, which is a style of woodblock prints and paintings that flourished in Japan from the 17th through 19th centuries. Kiyonobu is particularly recognized for his contributions to the development of the kabuki actor print, a sub-genre of ukiyo-e that focuses on the dynamic and dramatic portrayal of kabuki theater actors.

This specific artwork, created in 1702, captures the likenesses of two famous kabuki actors of the time, Hayakawa Hatsuse and Nakamura Shichisaburo. Kabuki theater, known for its stylized performances, elaborate costumes, and dramatic narratives, was a popular form of entertainment in Edo-period Japan. The depiction of actors in ukiyo-e prints served both as a form of advertisement for the theater and as a means for fans to celebrate and remember their favorite performers.

Kiyonobu's style is characterized by bold lines, vibrant colors, and a keen attention to the expressive potential of the human form. In "Hayakawa Hatsuse and Nakamura Shichisaburo 1702," these elements come together to create a vivid and engaging portrayal of the actors. The print not only highlights the physical attributes and costumes of the actors but also conveys a sense of their dramatic presence and the theatrical atmosphere of the kabuki stage.

The work is an excellent example of the early Torii school style, which Kiyonobu helped to establish. This style is marked by its emphasis on strong, dynamic compositions and a focus on the world of kabuki, which would continue to be a central theme in ukiyo-e art for generations. "Hayakawa Hatsuse and Nakamura Shichisaburo 1702" thus holds a significant place in the history of Japanese art, reflecting both the cultural importance of kabuki theater and the artistic innovations of Torii Kiyonobu.
