Disguised Immortal - A Mythical Journey through Edo Period Japan
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This polychrome woodblock print, created by Suzuki Harunobu in approximately 1766, takes us on a whimsical journey into the mythical realm of ancient Japan. The artwork showcases the artist's mastery in ink and color on paper, bringing to life a mesmerizing scene filled with enchantment. In this vibrant depiction, we witness a female rider soaring through the skies atop a magnificent bird-like creature. Cloaked in feathers of various hues, the disguised immortal gracefully glides above a picturesque countryside. The harmonious blend of colors evokes an ethereal atmosphere that transports viewers to another time and place. Harunobu's attention to detail is evident as he intricately portrays both human and animal forms. The woman exudes elegance and poise as she confidently rides her avian companion while holding a musical instrument known as sho—a symbol of artistic expression during the Edo period. This remarkable piece not only showcases Harunobu's technical skill but also reflects his deep understanding of Japanese mythology and folklore. By seamlessly blending elements from nature with mythological creatures, he creates an otherworldly composition that captivates our imagination. Today, this extraordinary woodblock print can be admired at The Metropolitan Museum of Art—an invaluable treasure preserving Japan's rich cultural heritage for generations to come.
