EDITORS COMMENTS
In this stunning handcolored woodcut print, a Japanese nobleman is depicted in the traditional attire of the Chonmage era, which flourished during the Edo period (1603-1868). The nobleman wears a Chonmage hairstyle, characterized by a topknot at the crown of the head, wrapped in a silk band and held in place by a square-shaped metal ornament called Kanzashi. His formal attire consists of a Kamishimo, a two-piece outfit made of silk, and a Kimono, a long robe, both adorned with intricate designs and vibrant colors. The nobleman also wears a Hakama, a traditional divided skirt that is worn over the Kamishimo, and a pair of gloves to protect his hands. He carries two swords, the Katana and the Wakizashi, which were essential weapons for the samurai class. A wide belt, called Obi, holds the swords in place. This image is taken from Auguste Wahlen's "Manners, Customs and Costumes of all the People of the World," published in Brussels in 1845. The print is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and the artistic skill of the woodcut technique. The intricate patterns and textures of the nobleman's clothing and accessories are beautifully rendered, and the use of handcoloring adds depth and richness to the image. The nobleman's regal bearing and the elegant design of his attire reflect the refined culture and traditions of Japan during the Edo period. The print offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history and fashion of Japan during this time. The image is a valuable historical record and a work of art in its own right, showcasing the beauty and intricacy of Japanese noble attire.
