EDITORS COMMENTS
by Suzuki Harunobu is a captivating snapshot of an intimate moment during Japan's Edo period. The woodblock print showcases the artist's mastery of color and composition, transporting viewers to a time when tradition and romance intertwined. In this scene, four figures stand at a doorway, their emotions palpable as they bid farewell at daybreak. A young man dressed in vibrant green kimono gazes longingly into the eyes of his lover, a young woman adorned in an elegant orange robe. Their love is evident through their tender expressions and gentle touch. Harunobu skillfully captures the essence of departure with meticulous attention to detail. The couple's traditional costumes reflect the cultural heritage of Japan while emphasizing their individuality within society.

The use of block printing techniques adds depth and texture to the artwork, enhancing its visual impact. Each brushstroke conveys emotion and tells a story that transcends time. "Lovers Parting in the Morning" invites us to contemplate themes universal to human experience: love, longing, and fleeting moments shared between souls deeply connected. It serves as a testament to Harunobu's artistic brilliance and his ability to capture profound emotions within delicate frames.
