Utagawa Yoshiiku (1833-1904) Japanese, Print, "40 Cats"
Est: $300 - $600
Utagawa Yoshiiku (1833-1904) Japanese, Print, "40 Cats." Depicts a woman being protected by a shisa (lion/dog) demon. Overall Size: 10 3/4 x 7 3/4 in. Sight Size: 7 x 4 1/2 in. #2524 #11 . Born the son of teahouse proprietor Asakusa Tamichi in 1833, Ochiai Yoshiiku became a student of ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi toward the end of the 1840s, taking the Utagawa name some time after this. His earliest known work dates to 1852 when he provided the backgrounds to some actor prints by his master. Yoshiiku’s first works were portraits of actors (yakusha-e), beauties (bijin-ga), and warriors (musha-e). He later followed Kuniyoshi into making satirical and humorous pieces, and became the leading name in the field after Kuniyoshi’s death in 1861, crafting images that blended surrealism and traditional themes. Yoshiiku’s works include the print Kokkei Wanisshi-ki (“Comical Record of Japanese History”), which employs the traditional theme of Hyakki YagyÅ on contemporary Japanese military actions in China. He cooperated with Tsukioka Yoshitoshi in the production of the muzan-e (“cruel pictures”) series Eimei nijÅ«hasshÅ«ku (“Twenty-eight famous murders with verse”). He illustrated the Tokyo Nichi Nichi Shimbun (“Tokyo Daily News”) from 1874 to 1876, and then co-founded the Tokyo E-iri Shinbun (“Tokyo Illustrated News”). The latter folded in 1889, and Yoshiiku returned to making prints. He struggled during his final years, and his last known print appeared in 1903. His three known students, Ikumura, Ikuei, and Ikumasa, all failed to achieve his level of recognition. Yoshiiku had ten children with his second wife, only one of whom survived childhood. Yoshiiku died at age 71 in a temporary residence on February 6th, 1904 in Honjo. He was buried at Anseiji temple in Asakusa and given the posthumous Buddhist name Juzen’in HÅkinikkaku Koji. This piece is titled “40 Cats” and appears to be an illustration Yoshiiku made in the 1860s based off the work of the writer RyÅ«tei Tanehiko, who was tortured to death by the conservative Tenpo Era government in 1842 for writing “A Rustic Genji by a Fraudulent Murasaki.”

Size: Framed: 21" H x 16.25" W; Sight: 14" H x 9.5" W. The construction of the Ryogoku Bridge in 1659 helped to shape the city of Edo and later Tokyo. The name of the bridge translates as 'two countries' and referred to the joining of Musashi and Shimosa Province which were prior separated by the Sumida River. It is often said that Edo was a city of rivers and canals, with travelling by boat a common mode of transport for most classes. Ryogoku Bridge was also a popular spot for fireworks and entertainment in the summer. Crowds would gather on the river shore or on pleasure boats to relax and cool off in the evening after a hot and humid summer day. UTAGAWA YOSHIIKU, Also known as Ikkeisai Yoshiiku, Ochiai Yoshiiku, Ikujirô, Chôkarô, Ikkeisai, Keiami, Keisai, Sairakusai, Yoshiiku, Yoshiiku Utagawa.

Est: $200 - $400
Ochiai Yoshiiku (Japanese, 1833-1904) - Woodblock Print. Mother Who Died Giving Birth Returns as a Spirit During Bon Festival. 34.5x23cm. From a series of sensational illustrations done by Yoshiiku for the Tokyo nichinichi shinbun newspaper during the Meiji era. These often dramatic images depict contemporary events in the news, including murders, robberies, and assaults, as well as suicides, fires, natural disasters, battles and campaigns, and even supernatural occurrences. Rendered in lively colors, each illustration is accompanied by a story in text. The title cartouche takes the form of a banner held by two winged cherubs, an interesting Western touch. These bold designs offer a terrific look into the daily life of Meiji era Japan. A Mother Who Died Giving Birth Returns as a Spirit During Bon, 1874 - Fascinating image of a mother who died giving birth returning as a spirit during the Bon Festival to embrace her child. Held annually, the Bon Festival honors the dead and the spirits of ancestors. At the beginning of Bon, it is believed that the spirits return to visit their relatives. Here, the woman slips beneath the mosquito netting to press the baby's cheek to her own, watching an older child sleeping as smoke rises from a small brazier at left. A lovely, moving design, beautifully drawn and colored. Source: Fujiarts.com
