EDITORS COMMENTS
The Tea-House of the Slender Tree, captured in this exquisite print by Mortimer L Menpes, transports us to 19th century Japan. The image showcases a harmonious blend of nature and architecture, with a majestic blue tree standing tall against the backdrop of a black flag fluttering gently in the breeze. This enchanting tea house is adorned with vibrant Japanese flags that proudly represent their country's rich heritage. The composition exudes tranquility as we glimpse a table set for tea amidst the darkness, inviting us to imagine ourselves sitting there, savoring the delicate flavors and engaging in meaningful conversations. The slim furniture and standard banners further enhance the elegance of this traditional setting. Menpes' publication 'Japan - A Record in Colour' beautifully captures his admiration for Japanese culture and its unique charm. His skillful use of color brings out every intricate detail, making it feel as if we are stepping into another era. This print serves as a visual time capsule from the turn of the 20th century, allowing us to appreciate both Menpes' artistic talent and Japan's captivating beauty. It reminds us that even though centuries have passed since its creation, art has an enduring power to transport us across time and space.
