Item Details
Description
  • Artist: Sharaku
  • Title: Kabuki Actor Otani Oniji
  • Medium: Japanese Woodblock Print
  • Size: 14.5 x 9.25 inches
  • Modern edition

    Sharaku entered the ukiyo-e printmaking scene in May 1794 abruptly. Sharaku produced some 140 woodblock prints within only ten months and then he disappeared suddenly and mysteriously. Numerous theories were developed and countless books were written trying to give an answer to one of the biggest enigmas in art history.

    Ukiyo-e woodblock print genre of art flourished in Japan from the 17th through 19th centuries. Its artists produced woodblock prints and paintings of such subjects as female beauties; kabuki actors and sumo wrestlers; scenes from history and folk tales; travel scenes and landscapes; flora and fauna; and erotica. The term ukiyo-e translates as "pictures of the floating world".
