EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Album of Hawks and Calligraphy" created by Kano Yoboku Tsunenobu during the 17th-18th century in Japan. The album, consisting of ten breathtaking paintings, beautifully captures the majestic presence of hawks, showcasing their unrivaled beauty and power. Each painting is meticulously crafted with ink and color on silk, highlighting every intricate detail of these magnificent birds of prey. The plumage is depicted with such precision that it seems to come alive on the page, evoking a sense of awe and admiration for nature's creations. The combination of hawks and calligraphy in this album adds an extra layer of artistry. The delicate strokes and graceful curves of Japanese characters intertwine seamlessly with the elegant forms of these raptors, creating a harmonious blend between man-made artistry and natural splendor. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from centuries past, we are transported back in time to a country deeply rooted in its heritage. This artwork not only reflects Japan's rich artistic traditions but also pays homage to its long-standing tradition of hunting with hawks. Now housed within the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art, this masterpiece stands as a testament to Kano Yoboku Tsunenobu's talent as well as a reminder that art has no boundaries when it comes to capturing the essence and beauty found in our natural world.
