{"product_id":"mrs-to-isoda-koryusai","title":"Mrs. Tō - Isoda Koryūsai","description":"\u003cp\u003eA delicate Edo-period woodblock print by Isoda Koryūsai, depicting a domestic scene with a woman and child in a muted, traditional colour palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis woodblock print by Isoda Koryūsai depicts a domestic scene featuring a woman identified as Mrs. Tō, accompanied by another figure and a small child. Koryūsai, a former samurai who transitioned to the life of a professional artist, became a prolific producer of ukiyo-e prints during the mid-Edo period. His work often focused on the lives of women, ranging from courtesans to domestic subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition employs the characteristic flat perspective of the period. The figures are arranged in a quiet, interior space, defined by simple architectural lines and the presence of a window frame. The child, positioned in the foreground, reaches upward toward the seated women, creating a sense of interaction that anchors the narrative. The colour palette is restrained, relying on muted earth tones, soft greens, and faded reds, which is typical of the printing techniques available in the late eighteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKoryūsai was known for his mastery of the hashira-e (pillar print) format, though this work demonstrates his ability to manage multi-figure compositions within a standard vertical frame. The lines are delicate, capturing the folds of the kimono and the gentle expressions of the subjects without unnecessary ornamentation. The print reflects the aesthetic values of the ukiyo-e school, which prioritised the depiction of everyday life and the fleeting moments of the floating world. The inclusion of a small toy on the floor adds a touch of realism to the scene, suggesting a lived-in environment. This print offers a view into the domestic sphere of the Edo period, presented with the technical precision and stylistic grace associated with Koryūsai's mature career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/evening-glow-at-ryogoku-bridge-keisai-eisen\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eEvening Glow at Ryogoku Bridge - Keisai Eisen — Keisai Eisen\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/nihonbashi-bridge-and-edobashi-bridge-utagawa-hiroshige\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eNihonbashi Bridge and Edobashi Bridge - Utagawa Hiroshige — Utagawa Hiroshige\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Isoda Koryūsai","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58970682982735,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58970700284239,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58970700317007,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58970700349775,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58970700382543,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58970700415311,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58970700448079,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58970700480847,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58970700513615,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58970700546383,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58970700579151,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58970700611919,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Mrs_Poster_CompositorV1_1790812465996.jpg?v=1790815515","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/de\/products\/mrs-to-isoda-koryusai","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
