EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Earth: Lin Chong (Do, Rinchu)" from the series "The Five Elements of The Water Margin" by Totoya Hokkei, dates back to the early 1830s. The print showcases Lin Chong, a renowned character from a popular Chinese folk story known as "Water Margin," which tells the tale of 108 outlaws living in the Liangshan Marsh. Lin Chong, also known as Iwakubo Kinemon in Japan, is depicted here wearing traditional Asian clothing, including a long, flowing kimono and a wide-brimmed hat. He holds a cigarette holder in one hand and a fan in the other, adding an air of sophistication to his rugged appearance. The intricate design of the print is achieved through the meticulous process of color woodblock printing, where each color is applied separately to the woodblocks and then pressed onto the paper. The use of bold, black color and intricate patterns adds depth and texture to the image, making it a stunning example of the artistic skill and creativity of the time. The Five Elements series, which also includes prints representing Wood, Fire, Metal, and Wind, is a testament to Hokkei's mastery of the woodblock printing technique and his ability to bring these folktale characters to life. This print is a valuable addition to any art collection, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Asia and the artistic traditions of the 19th century.
