EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Shibori, Hairpin, and Lip Color Bowl," is a color woodcut print created between 1818 and 1830 by the renowned Japanese artist Horai Hidenobu (active 1805-1825). The print is a stunning example of the Ukiyo-e style, a genre of Japanese art that flourished during the Edo period (1603-1868). The composition centers around three intriguing objects: a Shibori textile, a hairpin, and a lip color bowl. Shibori is a traditional Japanese dyeing technique that involves folding, twisting, or binding fabric before dyeing it to create unique patterns. The textile in this print showcases the beautiful indigo blue and white design that is characteristic of this art form. The hairpin, an essential accessory in Japanese culture, is depicted with delicate details, its intricate design adding to the overall allure of the print. The lip color bowl, a common cosmetic item during the Edo period, is shown with a fragrant perfume, symbolizing the importance of beauty and personal grooming in Japanese society. The still life arrangement of these objects is set against a plain background, allowing the viewer to fully appreciate the intricacies of each item. The use of bold lines and vibrant colors adds depth and dimension to the print, making it a striking example of Horai Hidenobu's mastery of the Ukiyo-e style. This exquisite work of art, now part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural history of Japan during the Edo period. The story of makeup and personal adornment in East Asia is brought to life through the meticulous details and captivating composition of this beautiful woodcut print.
