EDITORS COMMENTS
1716, Japanese Woodblock Print This exquisite woodblock print, titled "Resting Outside the Mosquito Netting," dates back to 1716 in Japan. The scene portrayed in this vintage artwork is one of tranquility and relaxation, as a man, a woman, and a child take a moment to rest outside the protective confines of their mosquito netting. The intricate details of this print are a testament to the masterful craftsmanship of Japanese woodblock printing during the Edo period. The couple and the child are shown reclining on tatami mats, their bodies relaxed and at ease. The man holds a fan in one hand, while the woman cradles a small teacup in the other. The child, with a curious expression, gazes off into the distance. The mosquito netting, a necessary protection against insects in Japan's humid climate, is depicted as a delicate and intricately woven barrier, providing a sense of security and comfort to the family. The background of the print is filled with lush greenery, with trees and flowers in full bloom. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the print are a feast for the eyes, showcasing the beauty and artistry of Japanese woodblock printing during this period. This woodblock print is a rare glimpse into the daily life of the Japanese people during the Edo period, offering a window into their culture, traditions, and way of living. The peaceful scene of a family taking a moment to rest outside their mosquito netting is a reminder of the simple pleasures in life and the importance of cherishing the present moment.
