EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print by the renowned artist Kitagawa Utamaro, we are transported into a mythical world where legendary figures come to life. The scene depicts the fearless Kintaro, known for his incredible strength and bravery, as he fearlessly grabs hold of Yamauba's flowing hair. Yamauba, a supernatural being often depicted as an old woman with wild hair and fangs, is no match for Kintaro's unyielding determination. With vibrant colors and intricate details, Utamaro skillfully captures the intensity of this moment. The contrast between Kintaro's youthful vigor and Yamauba's otherworldly appearance adds depth to the composition. Utamaro masterfully utilizes woodcut techniques to create texture and movement in each stroke. The print measures 39.4 x 26.2 cm, allowing viewers to fully appreciate the intricacies of his artistry up close. This artwork from between 1801 and 1806 showcases Utamaro's ability to bring folklore alive through his unique style. It serves as a testament to his status as one of Japan's most celebrated ukiyo-e artists. Quint Lox has captured not only the essence of this remarkable piece but also its historical significance within Japanese art history. Through their lens, they have preserved a moment that continues to captivate audiences centuries later.
