EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Momoyama Period Christian folding missal stand, dating back to the late 16th to early 17th century. Crafted with exquisite lacquer work, this ornate piece stands at a height of 35.1 cm and is part of a private collection. The stand is adorned in agoai and gold hiramakie on a roironuri ground, featuring intricate patterns of flowers and foliage. At its center lies a sunburst halo containing the monogram of the Society of Jesus, IHS. Above it rests a cross, symbolizing Christianity, while below are depicted the three nails used during the crucifixion. This stunning example of Japanese artistry demonstrates both religious significance and decorative beauty. The delicate inlay work and meticulous attention to detail highlight the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during the Momoyama period. The missal stand's hinge allows for easy folding when not in use, making it practical as well as visually striking. Its rich history connects us to an era where spirituality played an integral role in artistic expression. Through this print by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate the fusion of Asian aesthetics with Christian iconography during this time period. The combination of lacquer techniques, floral motifs, and religious symbolism creates an extraordinary piece that continues to captivate viewers centuries later.
