EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a fascinating juxtaposition of objects and themes. At its center, we see a box filled with salty cookies shaped like delicate plum blossoms. This unique treat is complemented by the presence of a pipe in an elegant case and a tobacco bag adorned with intricate netsuke carvings. To the rear left, a beautiful blue and white porcelain pot holds a bonsai pine tree alongside Fukujuso flowers, creating an enchanting scene. The title of this artwork refers to the shell depicted within the fan-shaped cartouche. It serves as a symbol connecting various elements in this composition. Accompanying it is an evocative poem written by Toshigaki Maharu, adding depth and emotion to this visual narrative. Created by renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai in 1821, this paper-based colour woodcut captures both beauty and cultural significance. The meticulous attention to detail brings each element to life, allowing viewers to appreciate not only their aesthetic appeal but also their historical context. This print offers us a glimpse into Japan's Genroku period through its exploration of traditional art forms such as kasen kaiawase (poetry matching game) and exquisite craftsmanship seen in netsuke carving. It invites us to contemplate the interplay between nature, culture, and human creativity while savoring the delightful combination of flavors represented by these salted plum blossom cookies.
