This Japanese woodblock print, The Actors Ichikawa Danjūrō V as a Skeleton by Katsukawa Shunshō (1726–1793), presents a striking kabuki scene where the famed actor appears as a skeleton before a woman in elegant robes. Shunshō, an important figure in ukiyo-e’s portrayal of kabuki theater, was celebrated for his expressive yakusha-e (actor prints). This work captures the dramatic tension and theatrical imagination of Edo-period performance, making it a compelling piece for collectors, Japanese art enthusiasts, and lovers of kabuki history.
