| Notes (this edition) These notes were written by the original owner/seller/auctioner of the item and may be inaccurate.: | Ranto (Dutch Lantern) from the series Yumeji's Masterpieces Spring Glance from the Magazine The Ladies Graphic Japanese Color Woodblock Print Ranto (Dutch Lantern) from the series Yumeji’s Materpieces by Takehisa Yumeji, 1938-1939 (after an earlier 1917 design) About This Print One of a number of posthumous prints created from Yumeji's illustrations by the Tokyo-based publisher Kato Junji. This design was originally made for the below 1917 cover of the musical score for Matoori Nagayo's Ranto Kota (Song of the Lantern), published by Senow Ongaku Shuppansha. Source: Takehisa Yumeji, Nozomi Naoi, et. al., Brill, 2015, p. 15. "This woodblock print exemplifies Yumeji's lifelong interest in the exotic and foreign, as manifest in the recurring imagery of port cities. Here, a woman dressed in a vivid red kimono with shibari-dyed patterns and floral motifs casually plays a shamisen. A large paper lantern hangs behind here, with a view of the bay in the distance." |
