Red Lacquer Dream
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolour painting from circa 1918, showcasing a woman in a dreamlike setting atop a muscular lion as they journey along a pathway adorned with an abundance of vibrant flowers. The panel, heavily decorated in red lacquer, adds an exotic and alluring atmosphere to the scene. The woman, dressed in elegant clothing, sits casually atop the lion, her posture confident and serene. Her expression suggests a sense of tranquility and contentment as she takes in the breathtaking scenery around her. The lion, with its powerful muscles and piercing gaze, appears both majestic and obedient, a faithful companion to the woman on its back. The pathway beneath them is lined with a huge variety of colourful flowers, their petals unfurling in a riot of hues, from deep reds and oranges to delicate pinks and purples. The panel, with its intricate red lacquer design, adds an additional layer of beauty and depth to the painting. This exquisite work of art was published in a magazine, likely in the October volume of a publication from that era. The artist behind this masterpiece is not known, but their talent for capturing the essence of a dreamlike state is undeniable. The use of watercolour adds a soft, ethereal quality to the painting, making it a true work of art that transcends time. Overall, "Red Lacquer Dream" is a stunning representation of the power and beauty of nature, the bond between woman and beast, and the allure of the unknown. It is a testament to the artistic vision of the past and a reminder of the timeless beauty that art can bring to our lives.
