"Surimono: Facade D'un Theatre" is a notable work by the esteemed Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Toyokuni, who was active during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Toyokuni, born in 1769 and passing in 1825, was a prominent figure in the Utagawa school, which was renowned for its woodblock prints and paintings. The term "surimono" refers to privately commissioned prints, often created for special occasions such as New Year's greetings, poetry circles, or theatrical events. These prints were typically more elaborate and luxurious than commercial ukiyo-e, often incorporating intricate details, high-quality materials, and sophisticated printing techniques.

"Facade D'un Theatre" exemplifies Toyokuni's mastery in capturing the vibrant and dynamic world of kabuki theatre, a popular form of traditional Japanese drama known for its stylized performances and elaborate costumes. The print likely depicts the exterior of a kabuki theatre, bustling with activity and adorned with banners and advertisements for upcoming performances. Toyokuni's keen eye for detail and his ability to convey the lively atmosphere of Edo-period (modern-day Tokyo) entertainment districts are evident in this work.

Toyokuni's contributions to the art of ukiyo-e were significant, particularly in the genre of actor prints (yakusha-e), where he portrayed kabuki actors in their iconic roles with great flair and personality. His works not only served as visual records of theatrical culture but also as promotional materials that enhanced the fame of the actors depicted. "Surimono: Facade D'un Theatre" stands as a testament to Toyokuni's skill in blending artistic beauty with cultural documentation, offering a glimpse into the rich theatrical traditions of Japan during his time.
