EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Good Harden Teeth Hagatameyoshi" transports us back to Japan in the year 1822. In this scene, a woman skillfully wields a knife to cut dried rice cake, surrounded by vibrant New Year decorations. The image is part of a series created for the esteemed Hanazono poetry association, known as "Hanazono Bantsuzuki". During the beginning of the new year, it was believed that consuming hard foods like dried rice cake would strengthen one's teeth and prolong their life. This belief is beautifully captured in this artwork, which also features two poems reflecting the significance of these first activities. The prints from this series align with the cultural importance placed on auspicious beginnings during the new year festivities. The red cartouche seen on these prints alludes to almanacs that guided individuals born in specific years regarding suitable activities for each day. Created by Totoya Hokkei, a renowned artist mentioned on the object itself, this paper-based color woodcut measures approximately 205 mm in height and 182 mm in width. As we admire this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, let us appreciate its historical value and artistic representation of traditional Japanese customs surrounding good dental health and celebrating new beginnings.
