EDITORS COMMENTS
Egawa Tarozaemon Playing the Koto," a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, showcases a moment of tranquility and cultural refinement from the late 19th century. This print is part of Yoshitoshi's series "Lives of Modern People," which depicted contemporary life in Japan during the Meiji Era (1868-1912). The image features Egawa Tarozaemon, a daikan or magistrate, in a serene setting as he gracefully plays the koto, a traditional Japanese musical instrument. Tarozaemon wears the formal attire of the Edo Bakufu period (1603-1868), which includes a richly patterned kimono and a formal hat. The use of vibrant colors, such as green and olive, adds to the print's visual appeal. The scene is set indoors, with a simple yet elegant decor, including a calligraphy scroll on the wall and a tatami mat floor. Three other figures, two women and a man, observe Tarozaemon's performance, adding to the sense of community and appreciation for the arts. This woodblock print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the late 19th century and offers a glimpse into the lives of the people of that era. The intricate details and expressive brushwork of Yoshitoshi's artistry are on full display, making this a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or history. Currently, this masterpiece is housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the history and traditions of Japan during the Meiji Era.
