EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print by Isoda Koryūsai, we are transported to the vibrant world of Edo-era Japan. The artwork, titled "Hototogisu o kiku yA'jo to kamuro" beautifully depicts a courtesan and her attendant as they pause to listen to the enchanting song of a lark. The courtesan, adorned in an exquisite kimono with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, exudes elegance and grace. Her attendant or apprentice stands beside her, their eyes fixed on the sky above where the lark soars freely. The delicate expressions on their faces reveal their complete absorption in the melodious sound that fills the air. Koryūsai's masterful use of color brings life to every detail of this scene. From the soft hues of pink cherry blossoms adorning nearby trees to the vivid blue sky contrasting against their elegant attire, each element contributes to creating a harmonious composition. This woodcut print not only showcases Koryūsai's artistic talent but also offers us a glimpse into Japanese culture during this period. It reminds us of moments when even amidst bustling city streets and busy lives, one can find solace in nature's beauty and be captivated by its melodies. Quint Lox has expertly captured the essence of this remarkable artwork from Liszt Collection through his concise caption, allowing viewers to appreciate both its aesthetic appeal and cultural significance without any mention of commercial use or company affiliation.
