The Brazier of Elegance and the Bell of Damnation (Fuga hibachi muken no kane), c. 1739/40
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This hand-coloured woodblock print by Okumura Masanobu transports us to 18th century Japan, offering a glimpse into the intricate interior design and artistic beauty of that era. The scene unfolds within a traditional Japanese home, where sliding screens create an intimate space illuminated by soft lantern light. In this tranquil setting, we find a man peacefully asleep on an engawa, or veranda, while a woman gestures towards him with elegance and grace. The central focus lies on the brazier, or hibachi, which provides warmth in this cold winter night. Its flickering flames cast mesmerizing shadows upon the paper walls. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element of this composition - from the delicate folds of clothing to the subtle play of colours that bring life to each character. A sense of harmony permeates through the image as it captures both stillness and movement simultaneously. As we admire "The Brazier of Elegance and the Bell of Damnation" we are reminded not only of its aesthetic appeal but also its cultural significance. It serves as a testament to Japan's rich heritage artistry and architectural traditions during the Edo period. This hand-tinted masterpiece invites us to appreciate not just its visual splendor but also contemplate themes such as tranquility, domesticity, and human connection – all encapsulated within this single moment frozen in time.
