Japan: 'Return from a Festival (Matsuri Kudari), Nakamura Utaemon on Horseback'. Part of a triptych woodblock print by Utagawa Toyokuni (1769 - 24 February 1825), 1810. Utagawa Toyokuni, also often referred to as Toyokuni I, to distinguish him from the members of his school who took over his gō (art-name after he died) was a great master of ukiyo-e, known in particular for his Kabuki actor prints. Utagawa was one of the heads of the renowned Utagawa school of woodblock artists, and was the person who really moved it to the position of great fame it occupied for the rest of the 19th century.
