Ukiyoe EDO-LIFE: Doodles or Ukiyoe
A series of doodles by the famous artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi turn out to be carefully considered depictions of the kabuki actors of the day. What kind of artistic statement was he trying to make?

浮世絵の世界をのぞいてみれば、江戸のリアルな暮らしが見えてくる!今回の舞台は「席書会(せきがきかい)」。子どもが書の腕前を披露する、寺子屋の授業参観に密着!
晴れ着姿の子どもで賑わう寺子屋。今日は「席書会(せきがきかい)」、子どもが書の腕前を披露する行事だ。様々な年齢の子が集まり、練習してきた文字を一生懸命に清書して、鴨居に張り出している。この絵が描かれたころ、江戸では寺子屋に通う子どもが7割を超えるなど、教育ブームが巻き起こった。教育熱心な親に応えるべく、子どもも張り切っていたようだ。ところでこの席書会には、師匠や親など、大人の姿が見えないけれど…?

#AshmoleanAdvent Day 1: Snow on Benten Hill at Kinryūzan Temple by Utagawa Kuniyoshi
Kuniyoshi was one of the last great masters of the Japanese ukiyo-e style of woodblock printing. He is probably best known for his prints of warriors and battles of legendary heroes, but also created designs of ghosts, cats, beautiful women, actor prints and landscapes.
Variations of this print exist, with some not showing any snow on the surface of the water. It shows show at the Kinryūzan Temple in Asakusa, Tokyo and is from his series of Famous Places in Edo. It is also very similar in composition to a print of the same title designed by Hiroshige in 1845.
Kuniyoshi was born in Edo (modern day Tokyo) on 1 January 1798 and in 1811 he began an apprenticeship at the Utagawa school of printmakers, under the leadership of the celebrated Utagawa Toyokuni I (1769-1825). He remained in Toyokuni’s studio until 1814 when he set up on his own and was given the artist name Kuniyoshi.

Wiki: (In this Japanese name, the family name is Utagawa).—Utagawa Kuniyoshi (UK: /ˌuːtəˈɡɑːwə ˌkuːnɪˈjoʊʃi/;[1] Japanese: 歌川 國芳 [ɯtaɡaɰa kɯɲijoɕi]; January 1, 1798[2] – April 14, 1861) was one of the last great masters of the Japanese ukiyo-e style of woodblock prints and painting.[3] He was a member of the Utagawa school.[4]
KUNIYOSHI UTAGAWA, "Yendo Musha Morito Holding the Head of Kesa Gozen Among Falling Maple Leaves" (or: "How Not to Treat the Woman You Love"). Kesa Gozen is a beautiful married woman with whom Yendo Musha Morito becomes infatuated--to the point that he plots to kill Gozen's husband while he sleeps so he can have her all to himself. She foils Yendo and saves her husband's life by pretending to be him asleep in their bedroom with her face hidden so that Yendo mistakenly murders her instead.

Utagawa Kunisada (Japanese, 1786-1865)
Ichikawa Ichizo III as Rokusaburo the Carpenter (1858)
Color woodblock print, 37 x 25 cm.
The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge UK
The figure depicted here, boldly wrestling a giant fish, is Rokusaburo the Carpenter, the hero of a popular Japanese Kabuki play. An inscription on the left of the print identifies the character, whose features are recognizably those of the revered actor Ichikawa Ichizo III. This print was made to publicize his forthcoming performance of the role at the Morita Theatre in Edo (modern Tokyo) in July 1858.
Kabuki had developed from a type of folk dance performed by prostitutes in the 17th century, into a sophisticated and hugely popular art form by the 19th. It originated in Kyoto, but by the time this print was made Kabuki’s main centre was Edo, more specifically the Yoshiwara district. This was the pleasure quarter of Edo, the hub of what was called ‘the floating world.’ Here were brothels and teahouses, restaurants and puppet theatres. The majority of prints produced in Japan between 1603 and 1868, when the Edo period ended, depict scenes of this urbane, carefree way of life. They are known as ukiyo-e -– ‘pictures of the floating world.’
Kabuki actors were icons within this society. Since 1629 only men had been allowed to perform in Kabuki plays, and this led to development of onnagata –- actors who specialized in female roles. Despite periodic attempts by government reformers to suppress what they considered to be an immoral form of entertainment, Kabuki thrived.
Kabuki plays lasted for hours and often involved elaborate staging. The carp grappling scene depicted here would have taken place in an on-stage water tank, the fish itself represented by an elaborate and carefully constructed prop. Audiences could become very involved in the action. In 1856 the actor depicted here was at the centre of a real life drama at the Morita Theatre when a samurai warrior became so absorbed in the action that he drew his sword, leapt onto the stage and made to attack him. Several people who ran to the actor’s aid were killed, but Ichikawa himself survived to act another day. The event cannot have harmed his reputation.
Kunisada was one of the most prolific printmakers in 19th century Japan and most of his works depict Kabuki actors, several of whom were personal friends of the artist. The cartouche, left, in the lower right of the print contains his signature: Toyokuni ga. Toyokuni was a name that Kunisada had inherited from his teacher; ga means 'drawn by.' Right is an early triptych by the artist in the Fitzwilliam, depicting a legendary sumo wrestling match between Matano Goro Kagehisa and Kawazu no Saburo Sukeyasu. This fight was often re-enacted as a preface to Kabuki plays about Kawazu and his sons.
