Painting Description
"Two Designs From The Series Furyu Zashiki Hakkei" is a pair of ukiyo-e woodblock prints by the esteemed Japanese artist Suzuki Harunobu, who was active during the Edo period. These prints are part of a larger series titled "Furyu Zashiki Hakkei," which translates to "Eight Fashionable Parlor Views." This series is an adaptation of the classical Chinese theme "Eight Views of Xiaoxiang," but Harunobu has reimagined these scenes to fit the context of Japanese zashiki, or parlor rooms, blending traditional Chinese artistic concepts with contemporary Japanese life of the 18th century.
Suzuki Harunobu (c. 1725 – 1770) was a pioneer in the development of the nishiki-e technique, which involved the use of multiple blocks to print a single image, allowing for a wide range of colors and intricate designs. This technique was revolutionary at the time and contributed to the full-color prints that became synonymous with the ukiyo-e genre. Harunobu's work is characterized by its delicate lines, subtle use of color, and the depiction of graceful figures in everyday settings.
The "Two Designs From The Series Furyu Zashiki Hakkei" exemplify Harunobu's skill in creating atmospheric compositions that reflect the customs and fashions of the Edo period's urban culture. Each print in the series portrays elegantly dressed women, often engaged in leisurely activities such as reading, writing, or playing musical instruments. The settings are intimate indoor scenes that showcase the beauty and refinement of the zashiki, with attention to the details of interior design and the textiles worn by the figures.
The series is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural portrayal of the lifestyle of the chōnin, or townspeople, who were Harunobu's primary audience. Through these prints, Harunobu offers a glimpse into the private spaces of Edo society, where the aesthetics of living were appreciated and cultivated.
As with many ukiyo-e prints, the "Two Designs From The Series Furyu Zashiki Hakkei" are highly collectible and are held in various art collections around the world. They continue to be studied and admired for their historical value and their contribution to the development of Japanese printmaking.
