EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed poet Taira no Kanemori, as depicted by Hon ami Koetsu in 1610. Published in Louise Norton Brown's book "Block Printing & Book Illustration in Japan" in 1924, this image offers a glimpse into the artistic school of the Edo period. Taira no Kanemori, a prominent figure who passed away in 991 AD, is part of the revered group known as the "Thirty-Six Immortal Poets" (Sanjurokkasen). In this portrait, he sits cross-legged with his legs elegantly crossed, exuding an air of wisdom and contemplation. The monochrome composition adds depth to his features and highlights every stroke of calligraphy that surrounds him. The photograph transports us back to seventeenth-century Japan, immersing us in its rich literary heritage. It captures not only Taira no Kanemori's essence but also pays homage to Hon ami Koetsu's mastery as an artist. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece of art from the twenties, we are reminded of the profound impact that poetry has had on Japanese culture throughout history. This print serves as a testament to both Taira no Kanemori's enduring legacy and Koetsu's contribution to woodblock printing. With its timeless beauty and historical significance, this photograph invites us to appreciate the intersection between literature and visual arts while honoring these remarkable individuals who have left an indelible mark on Japanese history.
