EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported to Japan in the late 18th century. The image features the alluring courtesan Sayokinu from the Yotsumeya Yotsumeya uchi Sayokinu, elegantly dressed in a kimono adorned with a mesmerizing pattern of cranes. She delicately arranges peach blossom branches in a vase, while two young girls, her shinzo and kamuro, watch attentively. The intricate details captured by Isoda Koryusai's masterful colour woodcut technique bring this scene to life. The vibrant hues and meticulous lines highlight every fold of Sayokinu's exquisite attire and emphasize the gracefulness of her movements. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the complex world of Japanese courtesans during that era. Known as hetaera, these women were not only admired for their beauty but also revered for their refined talents such as poetry and music. This particular piece is part of the Model patterns of early spring leaves series titled Hinagata wakana no hatsu moyo. It offers us a glimpse into an enchanting moment frozen in time – a serene yet evocative portrayal that captures both elegance and innocence. With its rich historical context and artistic brilliance, this print serves as a testament to Japan's cultural heritage and reminds us of the timeless allure found within traditional art forms.
