EDITORS COMMENTS
Lin Xiangru and Kojima Takanori, two distinguished figures from China and Japan respectively, are depicted in this stunning color woodblock print from the series "Five Sibling Pictures of China and Japan" created by the legendary Japanese artist Hokusai, in 1821. The series was produced for the Zakurogaki Group, a prominent artistic circle in Japan during the Edo period. Lin Xiangru, a renowned Chinese politician and poet, is shown wearing a traditional Chinese robe with a green cape, adorned with intricate patterns and calligraphy. His serious expression and regal posture convey a sense of wisdom and authority. Kojima Takanori, a samurai from Japan, is depicted wearing a formal military outfit, including a bright orange kimono under his armor, and a sash with the crest of the Mino clan. His stern gaze and strong physique exude power and determination. The use of vibrant colors, such as green and orange, adds depth and richness to the print, enhancing the overall visual impact. The intricate details and precise lines showcase Hokusai's mastery of the woodblock printing technique. This historic artwork provides a glimpse into the fashion and political climate of China and Japan during the 19th century, highlighting the cultural exchange and artistic influence between the two countries. The print is a testament to Hokusai's artistic genius and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects, making it a valuable addition to any art collection.
