EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of longing and unattainable love. Titled "Chapter 73: My hands cannot touch you like the cassia in the moon Nanajusandan" it is inspired by a passage from Chapter 37 of the Stories of Ise, where a man walks past a woman's house, unable to send her a message. The image features a circular disc with a hare and mortar attached to a wooden staff adorned with strips of paper (gohei). In the foreground, there is an intriguing bronze bell with rope and an elegant court hat (eboshi). The title itself reflects the man's thoughts as he gazes at his beloved - he can see her with his eyes but cannot physically touch her. He compares her unattainability to that of cassia flowers in the moonlight. Accompanying this evocative artwork are two poignant poems, symbolizing both desire and separation. The artist behind this masterpiece is Kubota Shunman, whose name is mentioned on the object. Created in Japan in 1812 using color woodcut techniques, this piece showcases exquisite craftsmanship. Overall, this print invites viewers into a world filled with yearning and poetic beauty. It serves as a reminder that sometimes love exists beyond our reach, leaving us captivated by its elusive nature just like the cassia flowers illuminated by moonlight.
