"Sawamura Sojuro III As Kujaku Saburo" is a notable woodblock print created by the Japanese artist Toshusai Sharaku, who is renowned for his portraits of kabuki actors. This artwork is part of Sharaku's oeuvre, which primarily focuses on the genre of ukiyo-e, a style of Japanese art that flourished during the Edo period (1603–1868). Sharaku's work is distinguished by its expressive realism, capturing the dynamic essence of kabuki theater actors in performance.

The print depicts Sawamura Sojuro III, a prominent kabuki actor of the time, in the role of Kujaku Saburo. Sharaku's mastery in portraying the intense expressions and the intricate details of the kabuki costumes has contributed significantly to the understanding and appreciation of Edo period theater. His ability to convey the emotional depth and the physicality of the actors' performances has made his works highly valued both in Japan and internationally.

Produced during Sharaku's prolific period of 1794-1795, this print is part of a larger collection of actor portraits that Sharaku created during his relatively short but impactful career. Despite the brevity of his time as an active artist, Sharaku's work has left a lasting legacy, influencing not only the development of ukiyo-e but also providing valuable insights into the cultural and artistic practices of the Edo period.

"Sawamura Sojuro III As Kujaku Saburo" is celebrated for its vivid portrayal and the artist's distinctive style, characterized by bold lines, dramatic expressions, and a keen attention to detail. Sharaku's prints, including this piece, remain subjects of study and admiration for their artistic and historical significance, offering a window into the world of kabuki theater and the broader cultural landscape of 18th-century Japan.
