EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the Southern Barbarians Come to Trade, a pair of six-panel screens created by Kano Naizen in the early 17th century. The screens, measuring an impressive 160x360.4 cm, depict Portuguese traders arriving in Japan aboard a magnificent European ship. The image captures an aerial view of the scene, revealing an ornate galleon anchored at a bustling port. Climbing animals and intricate gilt details adorn the screen, adding to its opulence and grandeur. This baroque masterpiece provides a glimpse into the historical exchange between Western merchants and Asian cultures during this era. The level of detail is truly astounding as every element - from the rigging on the ship to the coastal landscape - is meticulously rendered with ink, color, gold leaf on paper. It transports viewers back in time to witness this significant moment in maritime history when foreign traders brought wealth and commerce to Japanese shores. The photograph perfectly captures the essence of these remarkable screens while highlighting their exquisite craftsmanship. Its panoramic composition allows us to appreciate both the overall composition and each intricate element individually. This print serves as a testament not only to Kano Naizen's artistic prowess but also to Japan's rich cultural heritage and its interactions with foreign nations during this period of mercantile expansion.
