EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nine Old Men from Kozan" takes us back to ancient Japan, capturing a moment of camaraderie and intellectual pursuit. The image showcases two old men deeply engrossed in a game of go, surrounded by their seven companions. These nine old men were none other than the esteemed friends of the renowned poet Pai Chu-i, also known as Hakurakuten. Pai Chu-i was an ambitious man who faced numerous adversaries throughout his life, eventually leading to his exile in the provinces. However, his legacy endured through his close-knit circle of friends who remained loyal and supportive until the end. The artist behind this masterpiece is Yashima Gakutei, whose talent shines through this exquisite colour woodcut created around 1822. Measuring 210 mm in height and 187 mm in width, it beautifully captures the essence of friendship and intellectual pursuits during that era. Accompanying this remarkable artwork are two poems that further enrich its meaning and provide insight into the profound thoughts shared by these wise men. This print is part of a larger series called "Ten Prints of Famous Songs for the Katsushika Poetry Association" which highlights significant literary works cherished by poets at that time. It belongs to Liszt Collection's vast repertoire but should not be used for commercial purposes. Overall, this evocative image transports us to a world where wisdom and friendship prevailed despite adversity—a testament to human resilience throughout history.
