"A Modern Version of Ushiwakamaru Serenading Princess Joruri" (c. 1785) by Torii Kiyonaga is a stunning example of the *ukiyo-e* style, a genre of Japanese woodblock prints that flourished in the Edo period. This print depicts a scene from a popular Japanese folktale, with several elegantly dressed women participating in a musical performance. The vibrant colors, intricate details of the costumes, and the carefully rendered landscape all contribute to the beauty and charm of this work. The print is a testament to Kiyonaga’s skill as a master printmaker and his talent for capturing the essence of Japanese culture and aesthetics.
