Painting Description
"Moral teaching for shopboys giving good and bad examples of behaviour 12" is a notable work by Utagawa Kuniyoshi, a prominent Japanese ukiyo-e artist of the late Edo period. Kuniyoshi, who lived from 1797 to 1861, is celebrated for his dynamic compositions and innovative approach to woodblock printing, which often depicted historical and mythical subjects, kabuki actors, beautiful women, and scenes of daily life. This particular piece is part of a series that aims to impart ethical lessons to young apprentices, known as "shopboys," through illustrative examples of commendable and reprehensible behavior.
The series, including "Moral teaching for shopboys giving good and bad examples of behaviour 12," serves as a didactic tool, reflecting the societal values and expectations of the time. Each print juxtaposes two contrasting scenarios: one demonstrating virtuous conduct and the other highlighting misconduct. These visual narratives were intended to educate and guide young men in their professional and personal lives, emphasizing the importance of integrity, diligence, and respect within the commercial and social spheres.
Kuniyoshi's artistic prowess is evident in his ability to convey complex moral lessons through vivid imagery and expressive characters. The prints are characterized by their meticulous detail, vibrant colors, and dynamic compositions, which capture the viewer's attention and effectively communicate the intended moral teachings. The use of humor and exaggeration in depicting the consequences of bad behavior further enhances the educational impact of the series.
