1734
From the collection of Metropolitan Museum of Art
Untitled is a 1734 by Torii Kiyomasu I, a Baroque work, depicting Actor, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting shows a Japanese man dressed in traditional attire, standing in front of a tree with yellow leaves. He wears a red and yellow robe with a black design on the sleeve, and holds a parasol in his right hand. The man's clothing and parasol suggest a sense of elegance and refinement. The tree behind him adds a touch of natural beauty to the scene. The use of bold colors and intricate designs in this painting is reminiscent of the Baroque movement.
Torii Kiyomasu was the shop name of a printmaker in Edo—modern Tokyo—who spent his short career plastering the city with bold, eye-catching posters.
