In the context of Fan print with two bugaku dancers, explain the Works of the Utagawa Kunisada.
Although Kunisada designed many surimono and fan pictures, most of his works are in the ōban format. He also produced over sixty paintings.Given his incredible output, it is not surprising that Kunisada was active in various genres, including kabuki-e and yakusha-e (kabuki actor pictures), bijin-ga (pictures of beauties), yūrei-zu (ghost pictures), sumō-e (sumo wrestler pictures), shunga (erotica), musha-e (warrior prints), and uchiwa-e. He is also credited with popularizing Genji-e, a print genre related to the 11th century novel The Tale of Genji, through his 1829-1842 book series, Nise Murasaki inaka Genji (A Country Genji by a Fake Murasaki). In 1808, he began creating yakusha-e, and these were to become the mainstay of his production, making up 60 to 70% of his total works. So prolific was he, that he came to be known as "Kunisada, the Portraitist of Actors (yakusha-e no Kunisada)."Two popular genres which are under-represented in Kunisada's oeuvre are nature images (kachō-e/ 花鳥絵) and landscapes (fūkei-e/ 風景絵). He rarely designed pure landscapes, but began in the 1820s or 1830s to incorporate landscape elements into prints featuring beautiful women and actors. "Fan Print with two Bugaku Dancers" with its spare background landscape, is an example of this type of piece.
