EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hour Monkey Elegant Representations Twelve Hours" transports us to Japan in the late 18th century. Created by Torii Kiyonaga, a renowned artist of that era, this exquisite colour woodcut showcases his mastery in capturing delicate details and evoking a sense of tranquility. In this particular scene, we see two graceful women accompanied by a child strolling amidst blooming trees. One woman holds a branch adorned with blossoms, her gaze fixed upon an intricately designed cartouche at the top right corner. Within it, a mischievous monkey symbolizes the time between four and six o'clock in the afternoon - an hour associated with playful energy. The background reveals the majestic presence of a bell tower belonging to a nearby temple, adding depth and spirituality to the composition. The combination of natural beauty and architectural elements creates harmony within this artwork. Kiyonaga's attention to detail is evident throughout every inch of this paper print measuring 223 mm in height and 158 mm in width. The vibrant colours bring life to each figure and tree while showcasing his technical expertise as well as his deep understanding of Japanese aesthetics. This remarkable piece from the Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate not only Kiyonaga's talent but also provides insight into Japanese culture during that period. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact that continues to captivate viewers even after more than two centuries since its creation.
