EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us to Japan in the late 19th century. Titled "A Horse Washing River" this octagonal print is part of a larger album containing 39 exquisite prints. Created by Kawabata Gyokusho, a renowned artist mentioned on the object itself, this piece showcases his mastery of colour woodcut techniques. The scene depicted in this particular print is both serene and dynamic. A majestic horse stands gracefully amidst a flowing river, surrounded by lush vegetation and towering trees. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as he captures the subtle movement of water and light filtering through leaves. The choice to present this artwork in an octagonal format adds an intriguing dimension to its composition. Each angle offers a unique perspective on the horse washing ritual, inviting viewers to explore different facets of the scene. Dating back to 1880-1890, this paper print not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable insight into Japanese art during that period. Its vibrant colours and meticulous craftsmanship exemplify Gyokusho's dedication to preserving traditional techniques while infusing them with his own artistic vision. As we admire this remarkable piece from afar, we are transported across time and space – immersing ourselves in the beauty of nature and appreciating the rich cultural heritage captured within these delicate woodcut prints.
