A Selection of Six Flowers - A Parody Rokkasen - Bishop Henjo, c. 1798
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This woodblock print by Hosoda Eishi transports us to the vibrant world of 18th century Japan. Entitled "A Selection of Six Flowers - A Parody Rokkasen: Bishop Henjo" this artwork showcases the artist's mastery in color and composition. In this piece, a graceful woman dressed in traditional Japanese attire takes center stage. Her intricate hairstyle, adorned with elegant hairpins, is meticulously depicted with great attention to detail. With a hand gesture that exudes confidence and grace, she captivates our attention as she gazes into the distance. The transparent quality of her clothing adds an element of intrigue to the scene, allowing us a glimpse into her inner thoughts and emotions. The use of block printing techniques brings depth and texture to the image while maintaining a sense of delicacy. Eishi skillfully combines elements from different artistic schools and periods to create an unusual yet harmonious composition. The influence of ukiyo-e art can be seen in his portrayal of everyday life during the Tokugawa period. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's Asian Arts collection, this print serves as a testament to Japan's rich cultural heritage. It invites viewers on a journey through time, offering glimpses into centuries-old traditions and aesthetics that continue to inspire artists today. As we admire this remarkable artwork by Hosoda Eishi, we are reminded of the enduring beauty
