Painting Description
"Ichikawa Omezo I as Tashiro Yasubei, from an Untitled Series" is a notable woodblock print created by Utagawa Kunimasa, a prominent Japanese ukiyo-e artist active during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This artwork is part of the rich tradition of yakusha-e, a genre of ukiyo-e that focuses on kabuki actors and theater. Utagawa Kunimasa, born in 1773 and passing in 1810, was known for his dynamic portrayals of kabuki actors, contributing significantly to the development and popularity of the genre.
The print depicts Ichikawa Omezo I, a renowned kabuki actor of the Edo period, in the role of Tashiro Yasubei, a character from a kabuki play. The artwork captures the expressive intensity of the actor's performance, showcasing Kunimasa's skill in rendering emotion and character through the traditional woodblock printing technique. The precise date of creation for this piece is not definitively established, but it is attributed to Kunimasa's active period towards the late 18th century.
"Ichikawa Omezo I as Tashiro Yasubei" is characterized by its vibrant colors, meticulous detail, and the dynamic composition typical of Kunimasa's work. The print not only serves as a testament to the actor's skill and the popularity of kabuki theater during the Edo period but also highlights the artistic achievements of the Utagawa school, to which Kunimasa belonged. This school was influential in shaping the aesthetics and thematic concerns of ukiyo-e during its time.
As a piece of an untitled series, this print is part of a larger body of work by Kunimasa that captures the essence of kabuki theater and its stars. It remains an important work for scholars and enthusiasts of Japanese art and culture, offering insights into the interplay between visual art and performance in Edo-period Japan. The print is celebrated not only for its artistic value but also for its contribution to documenting the cultural history of kabuki theater.
