Artist: Kunichika Toyohara (1835-1900)
Title: Actors in Roles of Enchanters
Seriers title: Comparison of Magic (奇術白浪五色競)
Publisher: Matsuki Heikichi
Date: 1887
Size: (L) 24.8 x 37.2 (C) 24.7 x 37.4 (R) 24.8 x 37.4 cm
Condition: Slight misregistration, small holes and tears at the top, small creases, pigment stains.

One of the last great masters of ukiyo-e, Kunichika was inspired by the plays, actors and customs of kabuki theatre. His colourful prints are records of a long lost, decadent underworld of Edo. Since the beginning of the Meiji period, he made a large number of triptychs depicting half length portraits of a single actor on a big format and in luxurious style, applying original composition in this new design of dynamic prints. He got acclaimed for this work that improved the quality of half-length portraits and because those prints became known by their innovative composition, he succeeded in obtaining the full supremacy in the field of yakusha-e (actor prints).

His portrayal of human faces have some traces of his previous studies in hagoita style painting and can appear to be cold and hard, depending on the perspective, but it became a feature characteristic of his style.

Quick and efficient delivery. Excellent packaging. The print was in good condition, even though the paper was thinner and more transparent than expected. Good colours and details.

Die Brexit! Verzendkosten 40euro, dus dat zal wel over douanekosten gaan, Daarom zeer teleurgesteld dat bij DHL nog 27,45 douane moest worden afgerekend. Ik zal dat bedrag aan JG auction terugvragen
