EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Lovers Parting at Dawn, c. 1767/68 - A Poignant Depiction of Love and Farewell". This woodblock print by Suzuki Harunobu, titled "Lovers Parting at Dawn" transports us to the enchanting world of 18th-century Japan during the Edo period. The artist's mastery in ukiyo-e (woodblock printing) is evident in this exquisite portrayal of a tender moment between two young lovers. Set within a softly lit bedchamber, the scene unfolds as dawn breaks on a new day. Clad in vibrant traditional kimonos, the couple kneels on opposite sides of their bed, their faces filled with both longing and sorrow. The delicate color palette enhances the emotional depth of their parting. Intriguingly, perched atop an elegant folding screen behind them are mischievous monkeys observing this intimate farewell. Symbolizing playfulness and curiosity, these primate companions add an element of whimsy to an otherwise bittersweet moment. Harunobu's attention to detail is remarkable; every fold in clothing and posture conveys a sense of realism that draws viewers into this poignant narrative. His skillful use of chuban format allows for intricate compositions while maintaining visual harmony. As we gaze upon this timeless artwork from centuries past, we are reminded that love transcends time and place. "Lovers Parting at Dawn" captures not only the beauty but also the universal emotions experienced
