EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to 18th-century Japan, capturing a moment of forbidden love and daring escape. Titled "Ochiyo Hanbei take off Ochiya husband Hanbei" it depicts two figures, Ochiyo and her husband Hanbei, in the midst of an elopement under a vibrant umbrella. The scene unfolds with a sense of urgency as Ochiyo and Hanbei gaze up at a cuckoo bird perched above them. The delicate details of this colour woodcut bring their emotions to life; we can almost feel their hearts racing as they plan their getaway. Created by Torii Kiyonaga between 1780 and 1784, this artwork showcases his mastery in capturing human expressions and storytelling through paper. The dimensions of h 712 mm x w 122 mm make it an intimate piece that draws viewers into its narrative. As we admire this print, we are reminded of the power of love to defy societal norms and push individuals towards extraordinary actions. It serves as a timeless reminder that sometimes one must risk everything for true happiness
