EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Skylarks Primroses Series Array Birds Tori awase" takes us on a visual journey to the Edo period in Japan. Created around 1805-10, this privately published polychrome woodblock print captures the essence of spring rain and showcases the beauty of nature. The image features an array of skylarks, known for their melodious songs, amidst a backdrop of blooming primroses. The delicate flowers add a touch of vibrancy to the scene, while the birds symbolize freedom and joy. This artwork is part of a surimono album called "Harusame Surimono Jō" volume 3. Woodblock prints like these were typically commissioned by poets or poetry groups as New Year greeting cards. Inscribed with felicitous imagery connected to the arrival of spring in the lunar calendar, they often included witty thirty-syllable verses known as kyōka. The artist behind this masterpiece is Kubo Shunman (1757–1820), a renowned Japanese painter and printmaker. His skillful use of ink and color brings life to each element within the composition. As we gaze upon this exquisite piece from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to experience the elegance and poetic charm that defined Japan's cultural heritage during its rich history.
