EDITORS COMMENTS
Women of the Green Houses" is a captivating pair of black and white woodblock prints from the second quarter of the 18th century, attributed to the renowned Japanese artist Nishikawa Sukenobu. This exquisite artwork transports us back in time to the Edo period (1603-1868) of Japan, an era characterized by peace, isolation, and the flourishing of arts and culture. The prints depict a group of women, possibly geishas or entertainers, adorned in traditional Japanese clothing, including elegant kimonos and obi sashes. The women are shown relaxing indoors, surrounded by the lush greenery of their greenhouses, a common feature of the upper class during this period. The intricate details of their clothing, from the delicate patterns on the kimonos to the subtle folds and textures, are rendered with remarkable precision and artistry. The prints are a prime example of the Ukiyo-e (floating world) genre, which focused on the pleasures and fashions of the urban, affluent classes. The monochrome palette, with its striking contrasts between light and shadow, adds to the overall sense of tranquility and refinement. These prints were originally part of an illustrated book, likely a collection of poems or prose, known as a bunkado or jitokusai. The women's serene expressions and graceful poses suggest a theme of leisure and relaxation, making them a fitting representation of the elegance and beauty of the Edo period. Today, these precious prints are housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where they continue to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. They serve as a reminder of Japan's rich artistic heritage and the enduring allure of traditional Japanese culture.
