Katsukawa Shunsho on canvas, poster, wallpaper and ArtFrame by Peter Balan

Katsukawa Shunsho (1726-1792) was a prominent Japanese Ukiyo-e artist who lived in the 18th century. Ukiyo-e is a Japanese art form specializing in woodblock prints and prints often depicting scenes of the "floating world," showcasing urban life, actors, and beautiful women of the Edo period. Shunsho is particularly renowned for his portraits of Kabuki actors, which he depicted in vivid colors and intricate facial features. He was one of the early masters of the Ukiyo-e genre and played a pivotal role in developing the techniques and styles of this art form. Shunsho's works are distinguished by their expressive depictions of actors and the use of bold lines and vibrant colors. His influence on later Ukiyo-e art was significant as he laid the foundations for the portrayal of actors and the evolution of portraits in Japanese woodblock prints.
