"Louise Norton: A Journey Through Time and Art" Step into the world as she explores a diverse collection of captivating artworks spanning centuries. From the mischievous Monkey in Tachibana Morikuni's masterpiece from 1720 to Suzuki Harunobu's enchanting Courtesan looking at prints in 1770, Louise immerses herself in the beauty and intricacy of Japanese art. Delving further back, she encounters Hishikawa Moronobu's Man with swords and man with a lantern, transporting her to the samurai era of 1681. The scene transitions to barefoot elderly men with walking sticks captured by Hokusai in 1820, showcasing both vulnerability and wisdom. Louise then witnesses the exhilarating Horse-racing at the Kamo Festival through an unknown artist's eyes during 1692-1696. This vibrant spectacle is followed by Nishimura Shigenaga's depiction of a Man with kettle on a stove, evoking warmth and simplicity amidst an early-mid 18th-century setting. The journey continues as carriages drawn by oxen come alive under Hishikawa Moronobu's skillful brush strokes from 1663. Mount Ogura and the Uji River emerge majestically through Totoya Hokkei’s artwork from 1824, inviting contemplation within nature’s embrace. Hon ami Koetsu immortalizes poet Taira no Kanemori circa 1610 while Kitagawa Utamaro captures Women on a boat sailing gracefully across time in his work from1801. Ogura Tokei paints Landscape with figure crossing a bridge in1809, depicting serenity amid movement. Finally, Naniwa Shunkosai presents us with Barefoot men with parasols in the snow (1811), where resilience meets tranquility against winter’s icy touch.
