A woodblock print by Utagawa Toyokuni I, depicting a scene from Act I of the drama "Sugawara". The print showcases two figures in traditional costumes, rendered in fine lines and a muted colour palette.
This woodblock print by Utagawa Toyokuni I (1769-1825) depicts a scene from Act I of the drama "Sugawara." Toyokuni I was a prominent Japanese ukiyo-e artist of the Edo period, known for his portraits of kabuki actors and depictions of scenes from popular plays. His work helped to shape the visual culture of the time, and his prints were widely circulated among the urban population. The print shows two figures in elaborate costumes. The seated figure wears a patterned robe with a large circular design, while the standing figure is adorned in a darker robe decorated with floral motifs. The composition is typical of ukiyo-e prints, with a focus on capturing the likeness and character of the subjects. The subdued colour palette and fine lines contribute to the overall aesthetic, reflecting the artistic conventions of the period.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
