EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating color woodblock print from the series "Eight Views of the Parlor" created by the renowned Japanese artist Suzuki Harunobu in the mid-18th century. This stunning work of art showcases two women admiring the reflection of the autumn moon in a mirror. The scene is set in a traditional Japanese parlor, with the women dressed in elegant kimonos adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors. The left woman wears an olive green kimono with a rose design, while the woman on the right dons a pink kimono with a moon motif. Their hair is meticulously styled and adorned with accessories, reflecting the importance of personal appearance in Japanese culture during this period. The attendant, dressed in a simple outfit, looks on from behind, adding a sense of intimacy and domesticity to the scene. The moon's reflection in the mirror creates a sense of depth and dimension, while the moon itself is depicted in intricate detail, with its craters and contours accurately rendered. The print also includes elements of astronomy, with the solar system and lunar calendar depicted in the background. This beautiful work of art is a prime example of the Ukiyo-e artistic school, which flourished in Japan during the Edo period. It is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is admired by visitors from around the world for its exquisite detail, vibrant colors, and cultural significance. The print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan and the enduring beauty of traditional Japanese culture.
