EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour woodblock print, titled "Beauty Teasing a Young Man Fishing" transports us back to the 18th century in Japan. Created by Suzuki Harunobu, a renowned artist of the time, this piece measures 28.5x21.5 cm and is housed in The Art Institute of Chicago's prestigious Clarence Buckingham Collection. In this scene, we witness a delightful moment of leisure as a young man indulges in his favorite pastime - fishing. However, his concentration is playfully disrupted by an enchanting beauty who stands at the water's edge. Dressed in an exquisite kimono that showcases traditional Japanese style and costume, she exudes elegance and grace. The flirtatious interaction between these two figures adds an element of intrigue to the composition. As he casts his line into the waters, she teases him with her alluring presence. This amorous exchange captures the essence of ukiyo-e prints from this era - depicting scenes from everyday life with great attention to detail and emotion. Harunobu's masterful use of color brings vibrancy to every aspect of this artwork - from the lush greenery surrounding them to their meticulously designed kimonos adorned with intricate patterns. "Beauty Teasing a Young Man Fishing" not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us insight into Japanese vernacular prints during the 18th century. It reminds us that even amidst simple activities like fishing, moments filled with fliration can arise unexpectedly – forever captured
