Betreft twee houtsnedes van de Japanse prentmaker Kitagawa Utamaro, afkomstig uit de publicatie: Yoshiwara Picture Book of New Year’s Festivities. Het is niet uit welke (latere)uitgave deze exemplaren komen.
Het boek "Yoshiwara Picture Book of New Year’s Festivities" is een houtblokprentenboek (ukiyo-e) gemaakt door de beroemde Japanse kunstenaar Kitagawa Utamaro (1753-1806). Utamaro was een van de meest getalenteerde kunstenaars van zijn tijd en staat bekend om zijn verfijnde en elegante portretten van vrouwen, met name bij de Yoshiwara, het beroemde district voor plezier en vermaak in het oude Edo (nu Tokyo) tijdens de Edo-periode in Japan.
Dit specifieke boek toont afbeeldingen van nieuwjaarsfestiviteiten en gebeurtenissen die plaatsvonden in de Yoshiwara, waarbij de nadruk ligt op het weergeven van de elegante geisha en courtisanes die in de wijk werkten. Ukiyo-e-prints waren populair tijdens de Edo-periode en boden een visueel venster op het alledaagse leven, de mode, de cultuur en de amusementswereld van die tijd.
De werken van Kitagawa Utamaro, waaronder "Yoshiwara Picture Book of New Year’s Festivities," worden gewaardeerd vanwege hun vakmanschap en esthetische schoonheid. Zijn portretten van vrouwen staan bekend om hun fijne lijnen, levendige kleuren en aandacht voor details. Deze kunstwerken bieden waardevolle inzichten in de Japanse kunst en samenleving tijdens de Edo-periode.
