EDITORS COMMENTS
This polychrome woodblock print, titled "Young Women Playing Kitsune-ken Fox Game" transports us to the Edo period in Japan. Created by Suzuki Harunobu, a renowned Japanese artist from the 18th century, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of that era. The print showcases a scene filled with youthful energy and joyous camaraderie. Two young women can be seen engrossed in playing kitsune-ken, also known as the fox game. The spaciousness of the interior setting extends seamlessly into the exterior space through an open veranda adorned with blossoming cherry trees and a delicate railing. The combination of vibrant colors and intricate details creates a pleasant atmosphere that echoes both nature's beauty and human connection. The blossoming cherry trees symbolize renewal and fleeting beauty while adding depth to the composition. Harunobu masterfully portrays not only his subjects but also their emotions. The expressions on their faces reveal their excitement and enthusiasm for this traditional game. Their playful interaction is further emphasized by their elegant kimonos, which are rendered with meticulous attention to detail. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to experience a moment of leisurely enjoyment during Japan's rich cultural history. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been able to capture fleeting moments and evoke emotions that transcend time itself.
