- Lot Description
Toyohara Chikanobu (Yoshu Chikanobu) (Japanese, 1838 to 1912); Meiji Period, ca. 1897. "Viewing Chrysanthemums in September," woodblock print on paper. A delightful print of two beautiful young women wearing brightly patterned robes in hues of red, blue, white and green. These robes are a type of elegant kimono known as junihitoe meaning “twelve layers” that are traditionally worn by noble women. The women are surrounded by oversized chrysanthemum flowers in pastoral landscape. A colorful male and female pheasant observe the ladies as they approach a stream. Size of print: 13" L x 8.25" W (33 cm x 21 cm); size of frame: 18" L x 1" W x 13.25" H (45.7 cm x 2.5 cm x 33.7 cm)
Toyohara Chikanobu was a samurai of the Sakakibara and joined the shogitai to support the Shogun during the Meiji restoration and fought in battles with other Tokugawa loyalists where he achieved recognition for his bravery. After the Shogunate fell and the shogitai's surrender, Chikanobou began his career as an artist and newspaper illustrator, and often signed his artwork as "Yoshu Chikanobu." He is known for prints of all genres but is most celebrated for his depictions of women’s fashions and vibrant colors. His work has been exhibited in museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
