Righteousness, from The Five Virtues — Suzuki Harunobu (Japanese, 1724–1770)

Description

This reproduction follows “Righteousness, from The Five Virtues”, dated 1767 and held by Cleveland Museum of Art. The source credits the maker as Suzuki Harunobu (Japanese, 1724–1770).

Harunobu gives a classical ethical title to an Edo-period scene of young male courtesans studying a drawing manual. The print documents the virtues’ migration into commercial urban imagery, not a Chinese academy.

Choose an art print or an oil interpretation on canvas, then select your size and finish. The digitized composition keeps its proportions; the original object’s measurements, where known, do not limit the reproduction sizes offered.

The original object’s medium is recorded below using the museum’s terminology. A manuscript, drawing or print reproduced on canvas is an interpretation of that document; its original paper, silk, pigments and gilding are not the materials of the reproduction.
