EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pheasants, 1789" showcases the exquisite artistry of Kitao Masayoshi. Originally published in the book "Raikin Dzui" this masterpiece is a testament to the rich tradition of block printing and book illustration in Japan during the Edo period. The image depicts two vibrant pheasants with their striking plumage beautifully captured by Masayoshi's skilled hand. The intricate patterns on their feathers create a mesmerizing visual feast for the eyes. Each detail, from the spotty markings to the delicate lines, showcases Masayoshi's mastery of his craft. The artist's use of color adds depth and life to these magnificent birds, transporting viewers to a serene countryside setting where nature thrives. The warm brown hues evoke a sense of tranquility and harmony within this natural scene. Louise Norton Brown's publication "Block Printing & Book Illustration in Japan" serves as an invaluable resource for appreciating not only this particular artwork but also understanding its historical context and significance. As we gaze upon this woodblock print, we are reminded of Japan's artistic legacy and its profound influence on global art movements. This timeless piece continues to captivate audiences even today, bridging centuries through its enduring beauty.
