Mizoguchi’s film is based on the life of a prominent 18th Century artist and his complex relationships with the women who inspired him. While jealousies and passions abound among the courtesans and geishas who act as his models, Utamaro seems able only to truly connect with them through his paintings. Made during post-war American Occupation of Japan and the constant threat of censorship, the film is often regarded as one of Mizoguchi’s most autobiographical, reflecting the tensions of the time and the exploring the theme of artistic confinement.
