Namakubi Rokuzo Watching a Head Fly through the Air,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, dates back to the 1860s during the Edo period in Japan. This masterpiece is part of the "Biographies of Fine Modern Men" series, showcasing the life and legend of Namakubi Rokuzo, a legendary figure in Japanese folklore. The print depicts Namakubi Rokuzo, a man dressed in traditional Japanese apparel, including a kimono and hakama, with his legs crossed in a calm and composed posture. His gaze is fixed upwards, as if he is watching an otherworldly event unfold. In mid-air, a head, severed from its body, is flying towards the ground. The head is depicted in vivid detail, with its eyes wide open in terror. The print is a stunning example of ukiyo-e, a traditional Japanese art form that flourished during the Edo period. The use of color and composition is masterful, with the contrast between the serene figure of Namakubi Rokuzo and the flying head adding to the intrigue and drama of the scene. The print also features intricate details, such as the bowl of rice and chopsticks on the tatami mat in front of Namakubi Rokuzo, and the calligraphy on the scroll behind him. This woodblock print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the enduring appeal of its art. It is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The print is a reminder of the fascinating stories and legends that have shaped Japanese history and culture, and the continued importance of preserving and celebrating these artistic traditions.
