EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step into the enchanting world of 18th-century Japan with this woodblock print by Ishikawa Toyonobu. Titled "Sharing an Umbrella - A Set of Three" this masterpiece from the Edo period transports us to a serene autumn scene. The print showcases a couple, elegantly dressed in traditional attire, strolling beneath a majestic cherry blossom tree. As delicate pink petals gently cascade around them, they share an umbrella, symbolizing their deep connection and unity amidst nature's beauty. Toyonobu's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element depicted within the artwork. From the intricate patterns on their clothing to the vibrant colors that bring life to each leaf and flower, his artistic skill shines through. This piece not only captures the essence of romance but also provides insight into Japanese culture during this era. The use of platform shoes known as geta and patten sandals adds authenticity and highlights fashion trends of that time.
