Utagawa Kuniyoshi, a prominent Japanese ukiyo-e artist of the late Edo period, is celebrated for his dynamic and imaginative works that span a variety of subjects, including historical scenes, landscapes, and kabuki actors. Among his diverse oeuvre is the series "Moral Teaching for Shopboys Giving Good and Bad Examples of Behaviour 2," which exemplifies his skill in combining didactic content with engaging visual storytelling.

This series, created in the mid-19th century, serves as a moral guide aimed at young apprentices working in shops, a common occupation during the Edo period. The prints in this series are designed to instruct shopboys on proper conduct through vivid illustrations that contrast virtuous behavior with misconduct. Each print typically features two panels: one depicting a commendable action and the other illustrating a reprehensible one. Through these visual juxtapositions, Kuniyoshi effectively communicates ethical lessons in a manner that is both accessible and memorable.

Kuniyoshi's artistic style in this series is characterized by his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the nuances of everyday life. The prints are rich with cultural references and period-specific attire, providing a window into the social norms and expectations of the time. The use of vibrant colors and expressive figures further enhances the didactic impact of the series, making the moral lessons clear and engaging for the viewer.
