A woodblock print by Utagawa Kuniyoshi showing a group of boys play-acting a daimyo procession along a shoreline, capturing a playful scene with imitation costumes and ceremonial objects.
Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797-1861) was a prominent Japanese ukiyo-e artist of the late Edo period. He is celebrated for his dynamic and imaginative prints, particularly those depicting warriors, mythical creatures, and historical scenes. Kuniyoshi's work often displays a flair for the dramatic and a keen sense of observation, setting him apart from his contemporaries. His influence extended to later generations of artists, both in Japan and the West. This woodblock print depicts a group of boys engaged in a play-acting performance of a daimyo procession. The scene unfolds along a shoreline, with a rising sun in the background. The boys are dressed in makeshift costumes, carrying imitation weapons and ceremonial objects. The procession includes figures bearing standards, umbrellas, and a palanquin, all rendered with a playful and slightly exaggerated style. The composition is arranged horizontally, with the procession moving from left to right, creating a sense of movement and energy. The colour palette is dominated by blues, creams, and oranges, typical of ukiyo-e prints.

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.
