EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fumiyomu onna, Woman reading a letter" by the renowned artist Kitagawa Utamaro is a true masterpiece of Japanese woodcut art. Created sometime between 178 and 1806, this particular print showcases Utamaro's exceptional talent in capturing the essence of human emotions. The image depicts a half-length portrait of an elegant woman engrossed in reading a letter. Her delicate features and graceful posture suggest both curiosity and anticipation as she absorbs the contents of the written words. The vibrant colors used in this woodcut add depth to her expression, enhancing the overall beauty of the composition. Utamaro's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, from intricately depicting each strand of hair to delicately rendering the folds in her kimono. This meticulous craftsmanship brings life to his subjects, making them appear almost lifelike. "Fumiyomu onna" offers viewers a glimpse into intimate moments that transcend time and culture. It invites us to ponder over what might be contained within that letter - joyous news or perhaps heart-wrenching revelations? Regardless, it captivates our imagination and evokes empathy for this mysterious woman lost deep within her thoughts. Quint Lox has skillfully captured this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection with utmost precision, preserving its original charm for generations to come. As we admire this print today, we are reminded once again why Kitagawa Utamaro remains one of Japan's most celebrated artists
