Starts 1/25
SHARE
This exhibition draws on the Seikado Bunko’s collection of nishiki-e to trace the development of polychrome woodblock print depictions of kabuki actors, from early ukiyo-e through nishiki-e to the end of the feudal period and the birth of the Meiji era. Items on show include prints by Kunisada, who produced more portraits of actors than any other ukiyo-e artist, and the first ever exhibition of a previously unseen nishiki-e print by Kunichika, one of his disciples, who was known as the “Sharaku of the Meiji era.” Immerse yourself in the sensual delights of these colorful nishiki-e prints.
