EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned poetess Ono no Komachi during Japan's Edo period (1615-1868). Created by Suzuki Harunobu in 1767/68, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of a remarkable woman from the 9th century. Ono no Komachi, known for her exceptional literary talent and beauty, is portrayed here in a traditional kimono adorned with intricate floral patterns. Her green attire harmonizes with the lush surroundings, creating an enchanting scene that transports us to ancient Japan. Harunobu's mastery of woodblock printing is evident in every detail of this piece. The delicate lines and vibrant colors bring life to Ono no Komachi's portrait, while also showcasing the artist's skillful technique. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost feel Ono no Komachi's presence as she gazes downward thoughtfully. It is as if she is contemplating her poetic verses or perhaps reflecting on her place in history. This artwork serves as a testament to both the artistic brilliance of Suzuki Harunobu and the enduring legacy of Ono no Komachi. Through his brushstrokes and use of color, Harunobu immortalizes this iconic figure from Japanese literature and invites us to delve into a world where poetry meets visual art. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this exquisite woodblock print stands as a reminder of Asia's rich cultural heritage and its profound influence on artistic expression throughout centuries.
