EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of winter in Japan, as renowned actor Nakumara Shikan II gracefully poses amidst a breathtaking display of plum flowers. The image, titled "Actor Nakumara Shikan II in the Visit of Plum Flowers (Yoko Umeni)", was created by Kunisada Gototei in 1831 using xylography on paper. Dressed in an exquisite kimono and holding an elegant umbrella, Nakumara Shikan II stands tall against a backdrop of icy branches and delicate blossoms. His presence exudes both strength and serenity, perfectly complementing the tranquil beauty of his surroundings. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing the intricate patterns on Shikan's kimono and the subtle textures of each flower petal. This masterpiece transports viewers to a world where time seems to stand still - a moment frozen forever within this stunning work of art. Originally part of Maurice Denis' private collection, this rare photograph now resides with its current owner. Thanks to photographer Sylvain Collet's skillful lenswork, we are able to appreciate this extraordinary piece from Japanese history. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, we are reminded that art has no boundaries - transcending cultures and generations alike. It serves as a powerful reminder that even amidst winter's chill, nature can still bestow moments of unparalleled beauty upon us all.
