Sharaku Toshusai

Sharaku’s artworks are bit wired humor and this gives attraction.

I love to watch them!

Who is Sharaku?

  • Sharaku is a Japanese Ukiyo-e printer in the 18th century, and very famous by his portraits for kabuki actors.
  • His active period as ukiyo-e printer is only almost a year and his works is only almost 150. Still now, it have been not unclear who sharaku is and why sharaku disappeared.
  • Then Sharaku is one of the most mysterious artist in Japanese history.
  • Anyway, in my opinion, the persons he printed are very vivid and their eyes are very dark and deep. Also they are much mysterious and interested.
