EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Number four: Girl writes poem No yon" we are transported to a serene scene in Japan during the springtime. A young girl, dressed in a vibrant red kimono, sits gracefully on a soft cushion under the enchanting canopy of a flowering cherry tree. Behind her, an exquisite curtain adorned with the emblem of the Hanagasa Poets Association adds an air of elegance and tradition to the setting. With focused determination, she delicately licks her brush before commencing her poetic endeavor. The anticipation is palpable as she prepares to inscribe her thoughts onto the awaiting paper. The meticulous calligraphy will soon bring life to words that capture the essence of nature's beauty. The surrounding environment further enhances this picturesque moment. Abundant blossoms cascade from above, creating a breathtaking backdrop for our aspiring poetess. Every petal seems to whisper inspiration into her ear as she embarks on this creative journey. This remarkable woodcut print by Yashima Gakutei transports us back to 19th-century Japan when hanami (flower viewing) was cherished and celebrated by poets and artists alike. It serves as both an ode to nature's wonders and a testament to human creativity. As we gaze upon this artwork, we cannot help but be captivated by its timeless beauty and contemplate our own connection with nature's ephemeral splendor.
