EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported to ancient Japan where a whimsical scene unfolds before our eyes. A mischievous monkey, adorned in a vibrant red coat, perches gracefully on the back of a majestic long-haired turtle known as minogame. This peculiar pairing is not only visually striking but also holds deep cultural significance. The long-haired turtle has long been revered as a symbol of longevity in Japanese folklore. Legend has it that after living for 10,000 years, these wise creatures would grow tails made of seaweed. Thus, they became emblematic of enduring life and wisdom. With great attention to detail and poetic finesse, Hiroshige (I), Utagawa masterfully captures this enchanting moment through his colour woodcut technique. The delicate strokes bring out the intricate patterns on both the turtle's shell and the monkey's coat. As we gaze upon this artwork, our imagination takes flight with thoughts of playful interactions between tortoises and monkeys amidst lush landscapes. It serves as a gentle reminder that harmony can be found even among seemingly disparate beings. This remarkable piece invites us to reflect on the interconnectedness of all living creatures while celebrating nature's wonders through artistry and storytelling.
