EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant polychrome woodblock print, titled "Saddle and Other Pieces of Harness" transports us back to the Edo period in 19th century Japan. Created by the talented artist Kubo Shunman around 1810, this exquisite piece showcases his mastery of ukiyo-e, a popular art form during that time. The print captures the intricate details of horse riding equipment with remarkable precision. The saddle takes center stage, adorned with elegant patterns and delicate embellishments. Its rich colors and meticulous brushwork bring it to life on the paper, showcasing Shunman's artistic skill. Surrounding the saddle are various other pieces of harness: bridles, reins, stirrups - all meticulously crafted and depicted in vivid hues. Each element is carefully arranged within the composition to create a harmonious still life scene that celebrates both functionality and aesthetic beauty. As we gaze upon this artwork from centuries ago at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we can't help but marvel at its historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into Japanese culture during the Edo period when horse riding was an integral part of daily life. Kubo Shunman's "Saddle and Other Pieces of Harness" serves as a testament to his talent as well as an important artifact preserving Japan's heritage art. This woodblock print not only captivates our eyes but also sparks our imagination about a bygone era filled with elegance and tradition.
