EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "Making up Accounts" takes us back to early 20th century Japan, offering a picturesque glimpse into the world of finance and accounting in Asia. Created by Mortimer Ludington Menpes, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection. The artwork was originally featured as an illustration for the book "Japan A Record in Colour" written by Mortimer Menpes and transcribed by Dorothy Menpes in 1901. It beautifully captures the exotic charm of Japanese culture while showcasing the meticulous process of keeping financial records. In this scene, we see a Japanese accountant engrossed in his work, surrounded by stacks of books and textbooks. The artist's attention to detail brings every element to life - from the intricate patterns on traditional clothing to the serene expression on the accountant's face. Through this artwork, we are transported to a time when accountancy services were essential for businesses thriving in Japan's rapidly evolving economy. The fusion of Asian aesthetics with Western techniques creates a harmonious blend that reflects both cultural diversity and global influences. "Making up Accounts" serves as a reminder that art can not only be visually appealing but also provide valuable insights into historical contexts and societal norms. This print is truly an exquisite representation of how fine art can capture moments frozen in time while celebrating different cultures around the world.
