Description
A triptych of Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblock prints by Toyohara Chikanobu, from the series ‘Genji Bunshi Jō’ (Four Feelings of Modern Times), comprising prints numbered 26, 27, and 28. Each print depicts genre scenes with female figures in traditional settings, characteristic of the late Edo or Meiji period. They feature an array of colors, with intricate details in the costumes and backgrounds. Each print includes a vertical cartouche containing the series title and sequential numbering, along with calligraphic text within hanging cartouches in the upper sections. The artist’s signature, ‘豊原周延画’ (Toyohara Chikanobu ga), is present in a smaller vertical cartouche at the lower right of at least two of the prints.
Condition report:
The overall condition reflects age and handling. Uniform paper toning is present across all three prints. Widespread color attenuation is visible, particularly in the blues and greens. Minor creasing is noted, along with subtle surface dirt. Slight wear along the edges, including small tears, is also observed.
