EDITORS COMMENTS
Kisen Hoshi, or "Kisen the Star," is depicted in this stunning 19th century oban-size color woodblock print from the series "Fashionable Children as the Six Immortal Poets (Furyu Kodakara Rokkasen)" by the renowned Japanese artist Kikukawa Eizan. The series features children dressed as the famous Chinese poets and scholars of the Tang and Heian dynasties, showcasing both their literary and fashionable sides. In this print, Kisen Hoshi, who is believed to be the reincarnation of the Buddhist monk and poet Kisen, is depicted wearing a black kimono adorned with intricate gold and grey patterns, symbolizing the monk's ascetic lifestyle. The poet is shown holding a leaf in his hand, possibly representing the verses of his poetry. The natural setting of the print, with its autumnal leaves, adds to the serene and contemplative atmosphere. The print showcases the artistic school of the Edo period, which is characterized by its vibrant colors and intricate designs. The use of calligraphy in the title and the poet's name adds to the traditional and literary feel of the print. The print also offers a glimpse into the domestic life of the time, with the mother and child depicted in a warm and loving scene. The "Fashionable Children as the Six Immortal Poets" series is a testament to the importance of literature, art, and fashion in Japanese culture during the 19th century. This print, in particular, offers a unique perspective on the intersection of Buddhism and fashion, as well as the role of children in the artistic and literary traditions of the time.
