EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print from 1850, titled "WORLD MAP" takes us back to the Edo period in Japan. Created by the talented artist Sugiura Ryuen, this intricate piece centers around the vast Pacific Ocean, with a particular focus on Japan situated in the upper left quadrant. The attention to detail is astounding as every contour of land and sea is meticulously carved into the woodblock. The map showcases not only geographical accuracy but also highlights significant rivers and bodies of water such as the Sea of Japan. This historical artifact offers a glimpse into how people perceived and understood their place in the world during that time. As we explore this artwork further, it becomes evident that it was crafted with great care and precision. The delicate lines and vibrant colors bring life to each region depicted on the map. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and cartographic knowledge prevalent during this era. Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection has once again curated an exceptional piece for art enthusiasts worldwide. This Granger Art on Demand print allows us to appreciate not only Japanese culture but also gain insight into global perspectives from over 150 years ago.
