EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of a Leaping carp, created by an anonymous Japanese artist during the 19th century. The piece is crafted using a combination of silk, paper, wood, and ivory materials, displaying the meticulous attention to detail that characterizes traditional Japanese art. The Leaping carp holds great significance in Japanese culture as a symbol of perseverance and determination. In this artwork, the fish appears to be gracefully leaping out of water with its vibrant scales shimmering under the light. The delicate brushstrokes on silk capture every intricate detail of its form, while the addition of ivory adds a touch of elegance and texture. Measuring at 122.7 x 71.7 cm, this hanging scroll exemplifies both artistic mastery and cultural heritage. It is currently housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, viewers can appreciate not only the beauty but also gain insight into Japan's rich artistic traditions during Meiji Period (1868 - 1912). This remarkable piece serves as a testament to human creativity and craftsmanship across different mediums throughout history.
