EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite woodblock print depicts the renowned Japanese poet, scholar, and statesman, Sugawara Michizane (845-903), in a full-length portrait beneath a flowering tree. The portrait, which dates between 1741 and 1751, is a testament to the enduring legacy of this influential figure in Japanese history. Born in Kyoto, Sugawara Michizane rose to prominence during the Heian period as a brilliant poet and scholar. He served various roles in the imperial court, including the position of Minister of Education. However, his tenure was marked by political intrigue and jealousy, leading to his exile to Dazaifu in Kyushu. Despite his banishment, Sugawara Michizane continued to write poetry and is now revered as the patron saint of scholars and students. The woodblock print captures the essence of Sugawara Michizane's scholarly and poetic nature. He is depicted seated on a mat, with a book in his hand and a brush in the other, symbolizing his dedication to learning and literature. The tree behind him is in full bloom, representing the beauty and transience of life. The intricate details of the print, from the folds of his robe to the delicate petals of the flowers, showcase the masterful craftsmanship of the woodblock printmakers of the time. This print is a rare and beautiful glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the life and legacy of one of Japan's most celebrated figures. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of art and literature to inspire and captivate, even across centuries.
