EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Rough sketching, 1736 (1886)" takes us back to the artistic world of 18th-century Japan. The image depicts a woman dressed in traditional kimono robes, seated on the floor with an air of concentration. Her poised figure exudes grace as she engages in the act of sketching. The artist's skillful hand is evident in every stroke captured by this engraving after Nishikawa Sukenobu's original work from E-hon tama kadzura. The delicate lines and intricate details bring life to the scene, showcasing the beauty and precision of Japanese artistry. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are transported to a different time and place—a serene countryside setting where creativity flourishes. The woman's surroundings remain hidden behind her focused presence, allowing our imagination to wander through lush landscapes or tranquil interiors. Through this monochrome composition, we witness not only a moment frozen in time but also a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese culture. This print serves as a visual reminder that art transcends boundaries and connects us across centuries. Thanks to William Anderson's dedication as both collector and author, this exquisite piece has been preserved for generations to appreciate its timeless charm. It stands as a tribute not only to Nishikawa Sukenobu's talent but also to all those who have contributed their creative spirit throughout history.
