EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage Japanese woodblock print takes us back in time to a domestic scene straight out of a picture book from 1853. The monochromatic beauty of this print is truly mesmerizing, capturing the essence of traditional Japanese artistry. In the foreground, we see a servant holding a broom, pointing towards something with great reverence as he bows before another man. Their interaction suggests hierarchy and respect within this household setting. However, what catches our attention is the figure in front of them - positioned in an unusual yet striking pose, crawling along on his knees. This enigmatic character adds an element of mystery to the composition, leaving us wondering about their role or purpose. The meticulous details and delicate brushstrokes bring life to each figure portrayed in this woodblock print. The artist's skillful technique transports us into this historical moment where we can almost feel the atmosphere and hear whispers echoing through the room. Bernard Allum has masterfully captured not only a snapshot of daily life but also evoked emotions that transcend time. This artwork serves as a testament to both the artistic excellence found within Japanese culture and its ability to transport viewers into different worlds with just one glance
