EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Flying Geese and Full Moon" takes us back to the early 1900s in Japan. Created by the talented artist Koson, Ohara (1877-1945), this colour woodblock print showcases his mastery of the ukiyo-e school style. In this mesmerizing scene, we find ourselves immersed in a moonlit night where a flock of wild geese is on their migratory journey. The full moon shines brightly above, casting its ethereal glow upon the wings of these magnificent creatures as they swoop through the sky. Their graceful flight creates an awe-inspiring formation that captures our imagination. The artist skillfully captures both the tranquility and power of nature in this nocturne masterpiece. Each goose seems to flap its wings with purpose and determination, symbolizing their resilience during migration. The composition evokes a sense of harmony between man and wildlife, reminding us of our interconnectedness with nature. As we gaze at this artwork, we are transported to a different time and place – one filled with wonder and admiration for these majestic birds. It serves as a reminder that even amidst darkness, there is beauty to be found if we take a moment to appreciate it. Displayed at UCL Art Museum in University College London, this print continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. Its presence reminds us of the rich cultural heritage preserved within art museums worldwide.
