EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning tray adorned with two sparrows perched delicately on a branch. Created in the late 19th century by Sosuke, Namikawa, or possibly attributed to him, this piece of cloisonné enamel art measures 19.7x29.6x1.5 cm and is currently housed at the Ashmolean Museum in the University of Oxford, UK. The intricate design of this tray reflects the mastery of Japanese craftsmanship during that era. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke and contour, making it an exquisite example of Eastern artistry. The decorative motif features these charming birds as they gracefully rest upon a branch, their vibrant colors contrasting against the dark background. Each feather seems meticulously crafted with care and precision. Watanabe Seitei, a renowned designer from that period, may have played a role in creating this masterpiece alongside Namikawa. Their collaboration adds another layer of artistic brilliance to an already remarkable piece. Whether displayed as an ornate centerpiece or used for its intended purpose, this tray brings elegance and beauty into any setting. Its timeless appeal transcends generations and continues to captivate admirers today.
