EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent Six-fold screen depicting tales of Ise, created in 1617 by the renowned artist Tosa Mitsuoki. With its impressive dimensions of 269 x 97 cm, this masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. The screen depicts scenes from the Tales of Ise, a collection of Japanese poetry and prose dating back to ancient times. Against a backdrop of shimmering gold, Mitsuoki skillfully brings these stories to life through his exquisite painting technique. Each panel tells a different tale, transporting viewers into a world filled with rich cultural heritage and literary beauty. Mitsuoki's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke as he captures not only the characters but also the lush landscapes and delicate botanical elements that adorn each scene. The screen serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also as a window into Japan's traditional customs and traditions. As we admire this remarkable piece of furniture adorned with such breathtaking artistry, we are reminded of the enduring power that art holds in preserving history and culture. This print allows us to appreciate Tosa Mitsuoki's talent while offering us a glimpse into Japan's vibrant past through its literature, poetry, and natural history.
