1842 - Utagawa Kunisada - Rare Vertical Shunga - Balcony Lovers
Authentic Edo period original, c.1842, Japanese erotic art shunga woodblock print by Kunisada Utagawa (1786-1865).
From the shunga series, Shiki no sugatami (Viewing Forms in the Four Seasons).
Shunga picture measures 25 cm x 28 cm. Very good colors and impressions. Condition is good with some mild wear and soiling. No backing. Please see and judge from photos.
Another excellent scene from this series as a servant carries an extravagant meal to be delivered upstairs, while a couple seemingly cannot contain themselves as they openly fornicate on the balcony in plain view. It is uncommon to come across vertical-diptych shunga scenes in both Edo & Meiji Period Japan.
