Oda Harunaga and a Page with a Lantern,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, dates back to the 1860s and is an exquisite representation of the Edo period (1603-1868). This print is derived from the collection "One Hundred Ghost Tales from China and Japan," a popular series of fictional ghost stories. The image portrays Oda Harunaga, a fictional character inspired by the historical figure Oda Nobunaga, a powerful daimyo (feudal lord) of the Sengoku period (1467-1603). Harunaga is depicted in elegant attire, wearing a kimono with intricate designs and a wide-brimmed hat adorned with a feather. He is seen gesturing towards a page, who holds a lit lantern, as they stand in a serene garden setting. The page, dressed in a simple robe, is illuminating the path with the lantern, casting a warm, inviting glow. The background of the print features a lush garden with a Caryota urens (fan palm tree) and other exotic foliage, adding to the exotic and otherworldly atmosphere. The print is a stunning example of the colorful and intricate woodblock printing techniques popular during the nineteenth century in Japan. The use of blue and other colors adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a true masterpiece of Asian art and heritage. This print, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a testament to the rich cultural history of Japan and the enduring influence of its art and literature. The image of Oda Harunaga and the page with the lantern is a beautiful and enchanting representation of the Edo period, evoking feelings of nostalgia and wonder. The use of the lantern as a symbol of illumination and guidance adds to the overall theme of the print, making it a truly captivating work of art.
