EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "No. 2: Chinese boys copying paintings and writing Japanese, from the series 'Children Say This is Japan! and Imitate the Games They See in Picturebooks'" transports us back to 18th century Japan during the Edo period. Created by Torii Kiyonaga, a renowned artist of the Torii school, this woodblock print captures a scene filled with cultural exchange and youthful curiosity. In this vibrant artwork, we see a group of Chinese boys dressed in traditional clothing seated around a table. Engrossed in their activities, they diligently copy paintings while practicing their Japanese writing skills. The attention to detail in their attire showcases the fashion trends of that era, with vivid colors like pink and green adorning their kimonos. Kiyonaga's mastery as an ukiyo-e artist shines through in his ability to capture both the innocence of childhood and the rich heritage of Asian art. The composition skillfully balances elements such as furniture and desk arrangements against a backdrop that hints at an art gallery or institute. This print not only reflects children's playfulness but also serves as a testament to cross-cultural interactions during this time period. It reminds us how art can transcend borders, inspiring young minds to explore new horizons while cherishing their own cultural roots. Displayed proudly within an art centre or gallery setting today, this remarkable piece continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and historical significance.
