EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Young Woman with a Lantern" transports us back to the enchanting world of 18th-century Japan. Created by Suzuki Harunobu, a renowned artist of the Edo period, this colour woodcut showcases his mastery in capturing delicate beauty and evoking a sense of mystery. The young woman depicted in the print stands gracefully at dusk, holding a lantern that illuminates her surroundings. Her elegant kimono drapes around her slender figure, adorned with intricate patterns that reflect the artistic styling of the time. The soft glow from her lantern casts gentle shadows on her face and cascades onto the paper beneath her feet. Intriguing details such as her traditional hairstyle and wooden geta sandals transport us to another era. The bamboo doorway behind her adds an element of natural simplicity to this urban scene. Harunobu's skillful use of color brings life to this woodblock print, enhancing its ethereal quality. Each stroke is meticulously executed, showcasing his expertise in calligraphy and ukiyo-e (pictures of the floating world) style. Preserved within the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, this artwork serves as a window into Japanese culture during the Edo period. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in its serene ambiance and appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance.
