"Sanogawa Ichimatsu I As Hanaregoma Chokichi" is a notable work by the esteemed Japanese artist Okumura Masanobu, who was active during the Edo period. This piece is a fine example of ukiyo-e, a genre of Japanese art that flourished from the 17th through the 19th centuries, which often depicted scenes from the entertainment districts of Edo (modern-day Tokyo), including kabuki actors, courtesans, and sumo wrestlers.

Okumura Masanobu (1686–1764) was a pioneering figure in the development of ukiyo-e, known for his innovative techniques and contributions to the genre. He was instrumental in the transition from monochrome prints to polychrome prints, enhancing the visual appeal and complexity of ukiyo-e artworks. Masanobu's works often captured the vibrancy and dynamism of Edo's urban culture, and he was particularly adept at portraying the personalities and costumes of kabuki actors.

The subject of this particular print, Sanogawa Ichimatsu I, was a celebrated kabuki actor of the time, renowned for his roles in both male (tachiyaku) and female (onnagata) characters. In this depiction, Ichimatsu is portrayed in the role of Hanaregoma Chokichi, a character from a kabuki play. The print captures the actor's expressive features and elaborate costume, reflecting the theatricality and drama of kabuki theater. The attention to detail in the costume and the actor's pose highlights Masanobu's skill in rendering intricate designs and dynamic compositions.

This work not only serves as a testament to Masanobu's artistic prowess but also provides valuable insight into the cultural and social milieu of Edo-period Japan. It exemplifies the close relationship between ukiyo-e and kabuki, where the former played a crucial role in popularizing the latter among the urban populace. Through prints like "Sanogawa Ichimatsu I As Hanaregoma Chokichi," Masanobu helped immortalize the ephemeral performances of kabuki theater, allowing them to reach a broader audience and endure through the centuries.
