EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Hotei, from the series 'The Seven Gods of Good Luck in Modern Life (Ukiyo shichi fukujin)'", a remarkable work by Suzuki Harunobu. Created around 1769, this colour woodblock print captures the essence of Japanese art during the 18th century. In this piece, Hotei takes center stage as one of the seven gods representing good fortune. The image depicts three individuals, including a baby held tenderly in Hotei's arms. The delicate lines and vibrant colors bring life to this scene, evoking a sense of joy and tranquility. Suzuki Harunobu's mastery is evident not only in his artistic technique but also in his attention to detail. The calligraphic writing adorns the artwork with an elegant touch, adding depth and meaning to its composition. These carefully inscribed words further enhance our understanding of Hotei's significance as a deity or heavenly father figure. As we gaze upon this masterpiece from The Art Institute of Chicago's collection, we are transported back to early 18th-century Japan. Through Harunobu's skillful portrayal, we witness the fusion of traditional Asian aesthetics with modern influences that characterized Ukiyo-e prints during this period.
