The Floating World

Kumoi Cherry Trees

雲井櫻 · Kumoi-zakura

Yoshida Hiroshi · 1926

それは何か

A great weeping cherry spreads across the sheet under a pale moon, with two small figures beneath it.

なぜ重要か

Yoshida set up his own studio in 1925 with carvers and printers working under his eye, and 1926, the year of this design, was the year he published the most prints of his life: forty-one.

注目すべき点

The blossom is built up in soft layers of pink, and the moon is a pale disc behind the branches.

One tree in flower is reason enough to go out at night.

摺りについて。 Google Art Project file on Wikimedia Commons. Yoshida printed some designs in several colour versions from the same blocks, so sheets of one design can differ in time of day as well as in strength. 摺りによる違いは実在します——拭き取りや退色は一枚ごとに異なり、公開コレクションの中から最良の一枚を選ぶことこそ、当店の学芸的な仕事です。
