EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print titled "Sina kurofune nihon shirofune -- buta no taibyAc, Chinese black boat-Japanese white boat and the pigs big wound" artist Kobayashi Kiyochika takes us on a visual journey that combines historical symbolism with whimsical elements. The top portion of the print showcases a Japanese sailor standing proudly on the deck of a steamship, gripping a cannon barrel. A small Chinese boat can be seen sinking in the distance, highlighting tensions between Japan and China during that era. Moving to the bottom section of the artwork, we are greeted by three animals dressed in suits - an intriguing sight indeed! Among them is a pig cleverly disguised as an elderly Chinese man, adding an element of humor to this thought-provoking composition. Accompanying the pig is a rooster, symbolizing courage and vigilance. Kiyochika's use of vibrant colors brings life to each detail within this 37.9 x 25.2 cm masterpiece. The contrasting black and white boats represent not only cultural differences but also power dynamics between nations. This print from 1895 offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon historical events while simultaneously engaging their imagination through its playful portrayal of animals in human attire. Quint Lox has expertly captured this fascinating piece from Liszt Collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate its intricate details and rich symbolism.
