Nightscape illustration on a Japanese Robe - Bijutsu Sekai Art Print
Couldn't load pickup availability
Watanabe Seitei turns a kimono hem into a Meiji-era nightscape illustration and pulls you into autumn dark. Sumi-ink black silk drops like a cliff of midnight. Along its left edge, a strip of cherry-blossom pink lining glows like a lantern behind a shoji screen.
Near the hem, pampas silver grass bends in pale, quick strokes. Moon-viewing season lives in those blades. Poets once gathered beside such susuki with ink and sake, and Seitei stages their evening without a single figure. A plain wooden scroll stand props up one blank sheet of washi. Nobody has written the poem yet.
Beneath it, a pine green bank climbs in stepped rows of kanoko shibori squares, each dotted like a knot of tied silk. A celadon blue stream curls past in wave coils. One calligraphy brush tips its point into the current.
Printed for the Shin Bijutsukai design magazine, issued in Kyoto from 1901, this Japanese woodblock art print carries the sly wit of kimono design. The empty page waits for your verse.
