EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Sada Yacco, a renowned Japanese actress and courtesan, in an illustration from Twelve Portraits published in 1899. The hand-coloured woodblock technique used to create this artwork adds depth and vibrancy to the image. Sada Yacco's striking presence is beautifully captured by artist William Nicholson, with additional contributions from Pablo Picasso and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Their collaboration brings forth a unique fusion of artistic styles that perfectly complements the enigmatic allure of Sada Yacco. As one of Japan's most celebrated geishas, Sada Yacco enchanted audiences both in her homeland and during her visits to America and Europe. Her performances were known for their grace, elegance, and emotional intensity. In this portrait, we see Sada Yacco exuding confidence and mystery as she gazes directly at the viewer. Her elaborate traditional attire reflects her status as a woman of great beauty and refinement. This print not only captures the essence of Sada Yacco but also serves as a testament to the rich cultural exchange between East and West during the late 19th century. It is a timeless piece that celebrates the artistry of multiple talented individuals while immortalizing an iconic figure in Japanese history.
