Sedan by Kitagawa Utamaro

Sedan by Kitagawa Utamaro

In one of the engravings Harunobu showed Osen, a riding buffalo, loaded with two huge wicker baskets, and in baskets – love confessions and letters. So in a figurative form, Harunobu made it clear to the viewer how beautiful Osen’s beauty was. Harunobu shows his heroines in the interior, and – which is not quite familiar for earlier engraving – in the bosom of nature. The famous engraving of Harunobu “Lovers in the snow-covered garden testify to the subtle, lyrical beginning that the engraving could express through landscape backgrounds.

In parallel with Harunobu, theatrical schedules, both of the previous Torii dynasty, and the representatives of the Katsukawa family, were also working. Works of theatrical graphics in numerical terms make up about half of all Japanese engravings. Great and their artistic significance. The variety of themes, drama, decorative effects, borrowed from the Kabuki Theater, are characteristic of these engravings.
