EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of a traditional Japanese kosode design from the Edo period. The intricate pattern, known as "藍綸子地松鎖模様振袬" features interlocking squares and pines that gracefully adorn the figured silk satin fabric. The design effortlessly combines elements of nature with geometric shapes, creating a harmonious visual composition. Delicate passages of gently diagonal lines mimic cloud formations, adding an ethereal touch to the overall motif. Rendered using the resist dyeing technique called shibori, every detail is meticulously crafted. The artist's skillful use of indigo dye brings depth and richness to this stunning garment. By tying tiny portions of cloth with thread before immersing it in dye, a mesmerizing effect reminiscent of fawn spots emerges on the fabric. This unique process, known as kanoko in Japanese, adds another layer of artistry to an already magnificent piece. Measuring 71 x 50 inches (1803 x 127 cm), this kosode design transports us back to Japan's vibrant past during the second half of the 18th century. It serves as a testament to both historical craftsmanship and timeless elegance. Artokoloro has masterfully captured this cultural treasure through their lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and significance even from afar.
