EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour woodblock print titled "Morning Glory (Asagao)" by Eishi, Chobunsai takes us back to a time of elegance and grace. The print is part of a triptych, depicting three ladies on a balcony, each exuding their own unique charm. One lady kneels gracefully while the other two stand with poise and confidence. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork. From the intricate patterns on their kimonos to the delicate flowers adorning their hair, every element adds to the overall beauty and harmony of the scene. The vibrant colours used in this woodblock print bring life and vibrancy to these women as they bask in the morning sunlight. The presence of stones in the foreground suggests a sense of tranquility and stability amidst the ever-changing world around them. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos, one can find solace and peace. This artwork also pays homage to Japanese literature, particularly "Genji in Fashionable Modern Guise". It seamlessly combines traditional elements with contemporary fashion trends, showcasing how art evolves over time while still staying rooted in its cultural heritage. Displayed at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, this exquisite piece invites viewers into an enchanting world where femininity meets nature's splendor. It captures not only our imagination but also our admiration for both artistic skill and timeless beauty.
