EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Courtesan reading a tanzaku" we are transported to the enchanting world of traditional Japanese culture. The delicate and intricate details of this colour woodcut draw us in, as we witness a courtesan engrossed in the beauty of calligraphy. The elegant courtesan is seated gracefully, her traditional costume adding to the allure of the scene. With utmost concentration, she delicately holds a tanzaku - a narrow strip of paper used for writing poetry or messages. Her slender fingers glide across the surface, creating mesmerizing calligraphic strokes that seem to come alive on the page. Surrounded by an exquisite vase filled with blossoming flowers, our attention is drawn not only to her skillful penmanship but also to nature's own blooming beauty. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns on her dress mirror the elegance and grace displayed in every aspect of this artwork. This piece captures both tradition and femininity in its purest form. It serves as a reminder of Japan's rich cultural heritage while showcasing the timeless artistry found within their craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this stunning print from Enzo Di Cosmo's collection at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, Scotland, we are reminded that true art transcends time and place.
