EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the first card of a pack of Japanese playing cards, adorned with the beginning of a beautiful poem. Created in 1893 by an anonymous artist from the 19th century, this lithograph captures the essence of leisure and relaxation in Japan during that era. The card features not only the poetic verse but also a portrait of the esteemed poet themselves. The intricate calligraphy adds to the charm and elegance of this piece, reflecting both skillful craftsmanship and artistic expression. Intriguingly, this image was originally published in The Picture Magazine, offering readers a glimpse into Japanese culture through its traditional games and entertainment. It serves as a reminder that playfulness is an essential part of life's enjoyment. As we gaze upon this enchanting engraving, we are transported to a time when games were cherished pastimes and poetry held great significance. It evokes feelings of joy and camaraderie among players who gathered around tables for hours on end, engaging in friendly competition while appreciating artistry. Whether it be for collectors or enthusiasts alike, this print from Bridgeman Images encapsulates the fusion between creativity and amusement found within Japanese society.
