EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back to the early 1920s, offering a glimpse into the traditional Japanese art of letter writing. The image showcases a graceful Japanese woman dressed in an exquisite kimono robe, delicately holding a brush as she writes letters on paper. Her serene expression reflects her deep concentration and respect for this age-old tradition. The beauty of this photograph lies not only in its subject but also in the intricate details captured by the lens. The vibrant colors of her clothing and the meticulous patterns on her robe highlight the elegance that is synonymous with traditional Japanese attire. The postcard format adds an element of nostalgia, transporting us to a time when handwritten correspondence was cherished. As we observe this enchanting scene, we are reminded of the importance placed on written communication during that era. This image serves as a testament to how people once took great care in crafting their words using painting tools like brushes and inkwells. Preserved by renowned companies such as Hermann Post Card Company and Curt Teich Company, these lithographs serve as valuable historical artifacts today. Located at Lake County Museum, they offer us glimpses into different cultures and traditions from around the world. In an age dominated by digital communication, this print reminds us of our roots and encourages us to appreciate both the artistry involved in traditional practices like letter writing and our shared human connection through written words.
