EDITORS COMMENTS
This still-life print titled "Still-Life with Monkey Mask, 1824" by Hokkei transports viewers to the vibrant world of 19th-century Japan. Measuring at 20.9 x 18.2 cm, this colour woodblock print is a true masterpiece that showcases the artist's exceptional skill and attention to detail. The focal point of the composition is a mesmerizing monkey mask, its metallic pigments shimmering under the light. The mask exudes an air of mystery and intrigue, inviting us to delve into the realm of Japanese folklore and mythology. Surrounding it are various objects carefully arranged in a wooden box or crate, adding depth and texture to the scene. Intricate calligraphy adorns the background, adding another layer of artistic expression to this already captivating piece. The elegant strokes form words that remain open for interpretation; perhaps they hold hidden messages or convey deeper meanings known only to those well-versed in Japanese culture. A majestic dragon gracefully weaves through the composition, symbolizing power and strength while also representing mythical creatures prevalent in Asian folklore. Its presence adds an element of fantasy and enchantment to an otherwise ordinary still-life arrangement. This surimono shikishiban print exemplifies ukiyo-e artistry—a popular genre during this period—which depicted scenes from everyday life with great precision and beauty. It serves as a testament to Hokkei's mastery as he expertly combines elements from nature, mythology, and calligraphy into one harmonious artwork. Now housed at The Art Institute of Chicago in Illinois, USA—where it continues to captivate visitors—this print allows us a glimpse into Japan's rich cultural heritage while showcasing Hokkei's undeniable talent as an artist.
