EDITORS COMMENTS
Chiyokichi's Mother Identifies Him and Solves a Case of Mistaken Identity," a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, dates back to the Meiji Era of the 1870s. This masterpiece, showcasing intricate details and vibrant colors, was originally published in The Postal News, no. 484. The image presents a dramatic scene of a mother's unwavering love and determination. In the foreground, a distraught woman, dressed in a traditional kimono, kneels before a group of men, including a policeman. She clutches a fan with an image of her son, Chiyokichi, in traditional Japanese attire. The men, in various occupations, are engaged in a heated discussion, pointing to different men in the crowd. In the background, a bustling scene of urban life unfolds, with people in modern Western clothing and traditional Japanese garb going about their daily business. Amidst the chaos, Chiyokichi, wearing a simple robe and trousers, stands unsuspectingly, oblivious to the commotion. The mother's identification of her son, based on the image on the fan, solves a case of mistaken identity. Her quiet yet assertive posture and the respectful posture of the men around her convey the importance of family and the power of accurate identification in a time when communication and technology were not as advanced as they are today. This woodblock print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Meiji Era, with its blend of traditional and modern elements, and the enduring theme of maternal love and the importance of identity. The intricate calligraphy and colorful woodblock printing techniques add to the overall beauty and appeal of this work of art.
