EDITORS COMMENTS
Tengu Messengers Colliding in Midair," a captivating woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi in 1882, is a mesmerizing work of art from the Meiji Era (1868-1912) that showcases the rich mythology and storytelling traditions of Japan. Part of the "Sketches by Yoshitoshi" series, this full-length print depicts two Tengu, mythical goblin-like beings with the body of a man and the head of a bird, in mid-collision in the sky. The Tengu are known for their mischievous and sometimes clumsy nature, and this print captures the moment of their careless encounter. One Tengu, with outstretched wings, seems to be laughing at the other's misfortune, while the other, in a more serious expression, reaches out to steady himself. The intricate details of their feathers, clothing, and facial expressions are rendered with exquisite care, showcasing Yoshitoshi's mastery of the woodblock printing technique. The print is a vibrant display of color and contrast, with the deep blues and greens of the sky juxtaposed against the rich reds and oranges of the Tengu's robes and feathers. The calligraphy at the bottom of the print, written in traditional Japanese, adds to the historic and cultural significance of the piece. This woodblock print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan and the enduring appeal of its mythological creatures. It is a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art, history, or mythology, and is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).
