EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Flower-placing (colour litho)" transports us to early 20th century Japan, capturing the essence of its picturesque and exotic beauty. Created by renowned artist Mortimer Ludington Menpes, this artwork is a stunning illustration for his book "Japan A Record in Colour" transcribed by Dorothy Menpes in 1901. In this vibrant image, we witness a Japanese woman delicately placing flowers with utmost care and precision. The composition exudes an air of tranquility and reverence as she engages in this traditional practice. The watercolours used bring out the vividness of the blossoms, highlighting their natural hues against a backdrop that hints at the rich cultural heritage of Japan. Menpes' attention to detail shines through as he captures not only the physical act of flower placement but also portrays the subject's serene expression, reflecting her deep connection with nature. This portrait serves as a testament to Asian artistry and showcases the intricate customs that have been passed down through generations. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, it reminds us of Asia's enduring allure and invites us to appreciate its unique blend of tradition and elegance. Whether displayed in homes or galleries, this print adds an enchanting touch to any space while celebrating both artistic mastery and cultural diversity.
