EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Episode 73 (Nanajusan dan)" from the series "Tales of Ise" by Kubo Shunman, dates back to the early 19th century in Japan, during the Edo period. The Asakusa Group commissioned this masterpiece, which is now preserved at the Art Institute of Chicago. The print showcases a close-up view of a white rabbit sitting on a shikishi ban, or a square wooden plaque, against a plain background. The rabbit, a common motif in Japanese art and literature, symbolizes longevity and fertility. Kubo Shunman, a renowned artist of the Ukiyo-e artistic school, is known for his exceptional calligraphy and color woodblock prints. In this print, the artist demonstrates his mastery of the woodcut technique, creating intricate details and textures on the rabbit's fur and the shikishi ban's surface. The white color of the rabbit and the shikishi ban contrasts beautifully with the dark background, making the subject stand out. The title "Nanajusan dan" refers to a famous collection of waka poetry by the poet Ise no Okina, which was a popular literary work during the Heian period. The Tales of Ise is a series of stories based on these poems, and Kubo Shunman's print is a visual interpretation of one of the episodes. The print's intricate design and symbolic meaning make it a significant piece of Japanese heritage art, showcasing the richness and complexity of the country's artistic traditions.
