EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the right-hand section of a folding screen depicting the historic arrival of the Portuguese in Japan during the 16th century. This particular segment focuses on St. Francis Xavier (1506-51) and his entourage, offering a glimpse into this significant event in Japanese history. Intricately crafted by the Kano School using lacquer, this artwork is housed at Musee Guimet in Paris, France. The scene depicts Saint Francis Xavier's arrival in Japan in 1549 as he represents Joao III, the King of Portugal (1521-57). The composition portrays an array of elements that highlight cultural exchange between Europe and Asia during this period. Notably, we witness Saint Francis Xavier leading a grand procession accompanied by European missionaries and local dignitaries. He stands tall with unwavering determination while holding a parasol to shield himself from the sun's rays. A loyal dog dutifully follows him on a leash, symbolizing loyalty and companionship. This image serves as an emblematic representation of Namban art – Japanese art influenced by Western styles brought forth through trade relations with Portugal. It encapsulates both historical significance and artistic brilliance within its intricate details. As we delve into this remarkable piece, it becomes evident how art can transcend time to transport us back to pivotal moments where cultures converged and shaped our world today.
