Memorial Portrait Of Sawamura Sojuro Iii As Satsuma Gengobei Wall Art

Toyokuni Utagawa's "Memorial Portrait Of Sawamura Sojuro Iii As Satsuma Gengobei" from 1800 stands as the timeless qualities of Neoclassicism, rendered with Illustration sensibility, with its dominant Beige tones creating subtle visual harmony. Utagawa Toyokuni , also often referred to as Toyokuni I, to distinguish him from the members of his school who took over his gō (art-name) after he died, was a great master of ukiyo-e, known in particular for his kabuki actor prints.
