Painting Description
"Detail of Onoe Kikugorō III Taking Tea at Shinagawa" is a woodblock print by Utagawa Kunisada, also known as Toyokuni III, a prolific and influential ukiyo-e artist of the late Edo period in Japan. Created in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a larger genre of Japanese woodblock prints known as yakusha-e, which focuses on depicting kabuki actors. Onoe Kikugorō III was a renowned kabuki actor of his time, and Kunisada often captured the likenesses of such actors in his work.
The print showcases Onoe Kikugorō III in a moment of repose, taking tea at Shinagawa, which was a famous post-station on the Tōkaidō road connecting Edo (modern-day Tokyo) to Kyoto. Shinagawa was well-known for its teahouses and entertainment establishments, which catered to travelers and locals alike. In this detailed scene, Kunisada captures the actor's elegance and the intimate atmosphere of the teahouse, reflecting the cultural practices of the period.
Kunisada's mastery in portraying the subtleties of facial expression and the intricacies of textile patterns is evident in this print. The artist's attention to detail not only immortalizes the actor's image but also provides a window into the customs and fashions of the Edo period's urban culture. "Detail of Onoe Kikugorō III Taking Tea at Shinagawa" is a testament to Kunisada's skill in creating vivid and engaging portraits that resonated with the art collectors and theater enthusiasts of his time.
