EDITORS COMMENTS
The First Garments of the New Year" (Kiso hajime) is a captivating color woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Torii Kiyonaga in the late 18th century. This exquisite work of art is taken from the illustrated book "Colors of the Triple Dawn" (Saishiki mitsu no asa), showcasing a vibrant procession of children dressed in their new year's clothing. The print depicts a group of girls and boys, dressed in traditional Japanese attire, making their way through a serene domestic setting. The children are adorned in fresh, colorful garments, symbolizing the beginning of a new year. The girls wear elegant kimonos in shades of olive green and orange, while the boys don simple yet stylish outfits in similar hues. Torii Kiyonaga's masterful use of color and composition adds depth and dimension to the scene. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns and textures of the children's clothing, as well as the subtle nuances in their expressions and body language. This oban-size print is a testament to the artistic school of Torii, which flourished during the Edo period in Japan. It reflects the rich cultural heritage of the country and offers a glimpse into the daily life and fashion trends of the time. The print is a precious addition to any collection of Asian art, and its enduring beauty continues to captivate viewers to this day. The First Garments of the New Year (Kiso hajime) is a stunning example of the artistic prowess of Torii Kiyonaga and the vibrant artistic traditions of Japan during the 18th century.
