EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print titled "Young Japanese nude playing shamisen" transports us to the enchanting world of traditional Japanese culture. The image, taken from the book "Japanese doll" by Felicien Champsaur and illustrated by Hanafusa Itcho in Paris, 1912, showcases a mesmerizing scene. In this artwork, we witness a young Japanese woman gracefully playing the shamisen, a long sleeve lute with three strings. Her delicate fingers glide effortlessly across the instrument's strings, producing melodies that resonate with beauty and emotion. The artist skillfully captures her passion for music and her connection to this ancient instrument. The subject's nudity adds an element of vulnerability and sensuality to the composition. It symbolizes not only physical beauty but also represents an exploration of femininity within Japanese society at that time. This evocative portrayal challenges societal norms while celebrating individuality and self-expression. The chromolithography technique used in this print enhances its visual impact, bringing out vibrant colors that breathe life into every detail. Through Leonard de Selva's expert photography skills, we are able to appreciate the intricate artistry of Hanafusa Itcho's illustrations even more deeply. Overall, this print invites us on a journey through time and space as we immerse ourselves in both Eastern aesthetics and Western artistic interpretation. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of art in capturing moments of cultural significance while igniting our imagination with its timeless allure.
