EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Syllable - Mi from the series Tales of Ise in Fashionable Brocade Prints" takes us back to the 18th century, immersing us in the beauty and elegance of traditional Japanese culture. Created by Shunsho Katsukawa, a renowned woodblock artist, this exquisite piece measures 21.7x15.7 cm and is housed at the Maidstone Museum and Art Gallery in Kent, UK. The dominant colors of green to yellow-green evoke a sense of tranquility and harmony within this palace interior scene. In the foreground, we see a graceful lady seated at a low table adorned with her writing box and paper covered in delicate script. A stack of books rests beside her as she holds a writing brush attentively. To her left, there is a shoji recess with an intriguing lacquer box on its sill. The lady's focus is captured by a standing nobleman who gestures with his fan while engaging in conversation with her – he has clearly entered from the veranda just outside their view. Adding to the visual allure is a flowering prunus branch seen in the background, symbolizing renewal and beauty. Atop each print within this series are single characters enclosed within circles – each character unique yet harmoniously contributing to the overall composition. Through this photo print, we are transported into an enchanting world where artistry meets storytelling, inviting us to explore ancient tales woven into vibrant brocade prints. "
