EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Quails and Full Moon" takes us back to the early 1900s in Japan, showcasing the exquisite artistry of Kogyo Tsukioka. A master of the ukiyo-e school, Tsukioka's talent shines through this colour woodblock print, now housed at UCL Art Museum in London. In this enchanting scene, we are transported to a moonlit night where a group of quails come alive under the soft glow of a full moon. The artist skillfully captures their delicate features and graceful movements as they play together in harmony. Each bird seems to have its own role within this nocturnal performance, creating an atmosphere filled with mystery and intrigue. The use of vibrant colors adds depth and richness to the composition, enhancing our connection with these wildfowl creatures. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can almost hear their gentle calls echoing through the stillness of the night. Tsukioka's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his brush or carving on woodblock. Through his work, he invites us into a world where nature and beauty intertwine seamlessly. This remarkable piece not only celebrates Japanese culture but also reminds us of the timeless allure that art holds across different eras and continents. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with capturing fleeting moments and preserving them for generations to come.
