"Shunga-doppelblatt. Spiegel Moderner Ehefrauen. Japan, 1764/71" is a notable example of shunga, a genre of Japanese erotic art, created by the esteemed ukiyo-e artist Suzuki Harunobu. Produced during the Edo period, between 1764 and 1771, this work is part of a larger oeuvre of Harunobu, who is credited with pioneering the full-color woodblock print technique known as nishiki-e. The piece, whose title translates to "Shunga Double-Leaf. Mirror of Modern Wives," reflects the cultural and artistic milieu of 18th-century Japan, offering insight into the private, sensual lives of its people, as well as the aesthetics and techniques of the time.

Harunobu's work is characterized by its delicate lines, subtle use of color, and the graceful portrayal of figures, which he applied to the shunga genre with great finesse. "Shunga-doppelblatt. Spiegel Moderner Ehefrauen" is significant not only for its artistic quality but also for its cultural implications, as shunga played a role in the sex education of the Japanese populace and was believed to bring good fortune. Despite the explicit content, shunga was widely accepted and consumed by various social classes, including women and the samurai class, reflecting a more open attitude towards sexuality during the Edo period.

The double-leaf format of the piece suggests that it may have been part of a larger album or series, which was a common presentation for shunga works. The imagery likely depicts intimate scenes of conjugal life, serving as a 'mirror' to the contemporary customs and fashions of married women, hence the title. As with many shunga prints, the artistry and craftsmanship of the piece transcend its erotic content, showcasing Harunobu's skill in composition and his ability to capture human emotion and sensuality.

Today, "Shunga-doppelblatt. Spiegel Moderner Ehefrauen" is not only a testament to Harunobu's legacy as a master printmaker but also an important artifact for the study of Japanese art history, social customs, and the evolution of erotic art. Its preservation and study provide valuable insights into the complexities of Edo-period culture and the nuanced role that art played in everyday life.
