Artikelnummer: buk9988

Authentic Edo period original, c.1842, Japanese erotic art shunga woodblock print picture 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.

 

Great colors and impressions!  Condition is decent+/good with some wear and soiling.  No backing.  Please see and judge from photos.

 

An energetic and passionately rendered Edo-period shunga composition, filled with movement, intimacy, and physical intensity.  The intertwined figures, flowing patterned robes, outdoor hanging lanterns, and warm interior setting create a strong sense of immediacy, while the balanced arrangement of the decor work reflect the enduring artistry of classical Japanese ukiyo-e erotica.  A vivid and emotionally charged scene that captures the sensual atmosphere so characteristic of fine Edo-period shunga.
