EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Honest Grocery, Taisho era, 1926" takes us back in time to the vibrant streets of Japan during the early 20th century. Created by renowned artist Yoshida Hiroshi, this colour woodblock print beautifully captures a snapshot of daily life in a bustling grocery store. The scene is filled with an array of vivid colors and intricate details that bring the image to life. A female shopper dressed in a traditional kimono delicately holds a basket filled with fresh fruits and vegetables. Behind her, shelves are stocked with an abundance of produce, creating a visually stunning display. Yoshida's mastery lies not only in his artistic technique but also in his ability to convey the essence of Japanese culture through his work. This print showcases both botany and natural history as it celebrates the beauty found within everyday objects. Displayed at the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery at the Smithsonian Institution in the USA, this piece serves as a testament to Yoshida's talent and legacy. It was acquired through purchase and partial gift from H. Ed Robison. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to a simpler time when shopping for groceries was an intimate experience rooted in community connections and appreciation for nature's bounty.
