EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Korean Embassy Parade, 1682" takes us back to the vibrant Edo period in Japan. Created by the renowned artist Hishikawa Moronobu, this hand-coloured woodblock print showcases a grand procession of diplomats and ambassadors from Korea. The image transports us to a time when international relations were celebrated with pomp and splendor. The parade is filled with an array of vividly dressed men on horseback, elegantly riding through the streets. Their exquisite clothing and accessories reflect their high-ranking positions and diplomatic roles. The attention to detail in this artwork is truly remarkable. Each figure is meticulously portrayed, capturing their distinct features and expressions. The horses are beautifully rendered, adding movement and energy to the scene. As we delve into this historical moment frozen in time, we can imagine the excitement that must have filled the air as people lined the streets to catch a glimpse of these important visitors. The palanquins carried by porters add an element of regality to the procession while parasols provide shade for those walking alongside. Hishikawa Moronobu's skillful use of colour brings life to this centuries-old scene, allowing us to appreciate not only his artistic talent but also gain insight into cultural exchanges during that era. This print serves as a testament to both Japanese artistry and international diplomacy - a true treasure preserved at the Art Institute Chicago for all admirers of heritage art.
