EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print titled "Shichifukujin, The seven gods of good luck" created by the renowned artist Utagawa Toyokuni between 1830 and 1844, we are transported into the enchanting world of Japanese mythology. Measuring 36.5 x 24.9 cm at the top panel and 37.9 x 24.9 cm at the bottom panel, this artwork beautifully showcases the vibrant colors and intricate details characteristic of traditional woodcuts. The print depicts the revered Shichifukujin, also known as the seven lucky gods in Japanese folklore. These deities symbolize various aspects of good fortune and blessings in different areas of life such as wealth, longevity, wisdom, happiness, love, virtue, and abundance. Toyokuni's masterful craftsmanship brings each god to life with meticulous attention to detail. From Ebisu holding a fishing rod to Daikoku carrying his magic mallet and bag overflowing with treasures - every element is thoughtfully portrayed. This artwork not only serves as a visual feast but also offers an insight into Japanese culture and beliefs surrounding luck and prosperity. It invites us to immerse ourselves in a world where mythical beings intertwine with everyday existence. Quint Lox's capture of this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate Toyokuni's artistic genius while contemplating our own desires for good fortune in all its forms.
