EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Squirrels on Bamboo and Rock" takes us back to the 19th century in Japan's Edo period. Created by the talented artist Kano Osanobu, this hanging scroll showcases his mastery of ink on silk technique. The image depicts a mischievous pair of squirrels perched upon bamboo branches, with a rugged rock serving as their playground. The simplicity of the black and white palette enhances the intricate details of their fur, capturing their lively energy and curiosity. As we gaze at this heritage art piece, we are transported to a different time and place. We can almost feel the texture of the fabric beneath our fingertips, envisioning it displayed in an elegant Japanese home or temple. Kano Osanobu's work not only captures wildlife but also embodies the essence of Japanese culture during that era. It serves as a reminder of Japan's rich artistic heritage and its deep connection with nature. Now housed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this exquisite print continues to inspire awe among visitors who appreciate both its historical significance and artistic brilliance. Its presence in such a prestigious institution ensures that future generations will have the opportunity to admire Kano Osanobu's talent for years to come.
