EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "õ║öþ«çÕø¢õ║║þë®ÕææÞ¿ùõ╣ïÕø│ People Five Nations" from the Liszt Collection takes us back to Japan's Edo period (1615–1868) in 1861. This triptych of polychrome woodblock prints, created by Utagawa Yoshitora, showcases the rich cultural diversity and interactions between foreigners, merchants, officers, ladies, and servants during that time. In this image, we witness a vibrant gathering where individuals from five different nations come together for refreshments. The scene resembles a Chinese courtyard set against the backdrop of Yokohama waterfront. The meticulous shading and highlighting techniques employed by Yoshitora bring life to each character's unique attire and coloration. It is fascinating to note how these prints were inspired by Western engravings but still retain their distinct Japanese essence. Through ink, color, and paper manipulation, Yoshitora masterfully captures the intricate details of clothing styles from various cultures represented in this artwork. This print offers a glimpse into an era when Japan was opening up to foreign influences while maintaining its own traditions. It serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of Utagawa Yoshitora and provides valuable insight into historical cross-cultural exchanges during one of Japan's most transformative periods.
