EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Four Elegant Pastimes - Music, the Game of Go" by Shibata Zeshin. The artwork, created with ink and color on gold paper, measures 16.9x63 cm and is part of a private collection. In this exquisite piece, we are transported to a world where elegance reigns supreme. The scene unfolds on a six-panel screen, depicting two separate pastimes that epitomize grace and refinement. On the left panel, we witness the enchanting allure of music as female dancers captivate us with their rhythmic movements. Their delicate fans in hand add an air of mystique to their performance as they gracefully sway to the melodies filling the air. Meanwhile, on the right panel, participants engage in an intense game of go. Seated around a table adorned with intricate details, male players concentrate deeply while strategizing their next move. This ancient board game symbolizes intellect and strategic thinking. The golden backdrop adds a touch of opulence to this already mesmerizing composition. Each element seamlessly blends together to create a harmonious visual symphony that celebrates both artistry and leisure. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can appreciate Shibata Zeshin's masterful craftsmanship and his ability to capture moments frozen in time – moments that embody elegance at its finest.
