EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Two Cranes, 1925-26" by Koson, Ohara showcases the artist's mastery of colour woodcut. The artwork measures 37.6--16.8 cm and is housed in the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Part of the shin-hanga movement, Ohara Koson's work reflects a blend of traditional Japanese artistry with modern influences. In this piece, two graceful cranes take center stage against a backdrop of bamboo plants and a serene river flowing gently beneath them. The intricate calligraphy adds an extra layer of depth to the composition, enhancing its artistic appeal. The carefully inscribed words seem to harmonize with nature itself as they become part of this mesmerizing scene. Koson's attention to detail brings these majestic birds to life on paper – their elegant forms and vibrant colours exude a sense of tranquility and grace. With no human presence in sight, the viewer can fully immerse themselves in the beauty and serenity of nature captured within this artwork. This early twentieth-century masterpiece serves as a testament to Koson's talent as an artist and his ability to capture the essence of wildlife through his brushstrokes. It transports us into a world where animals reign supreme amidst untouched landscapes. Through this remarkable print, we are reminded that art has the power not only to inspire but also to connect us deeply with our natural surroundings – inviting us to appreciate and protect our planet for generations to come.
