    L’art D’utamaro

    February 16, 2021 / 0 Comments

    Le texte ci-dessous est l’extrait du livre Utamaro (ASIN: B016XN18M6) écrit par Edmond de Goncourt, publié par Parkstone International. Parcourir les albums japonais est une véritable initiation, au cours de laquelle on est particulièrement ébloui par la splendeur d’Utamaro. Ses planches somptueuses frappent l’imagination par son amour de la femme, qu’il enveloppe si voluptueusement dans les grandes étoffes japonaises, dans des plis, des contours, des chutes et des couleurs si recherchées que le cœur défaille à les regarder, à se figurer ce qu’elles représentent de jouissances exquises pour le peintre. Car le vêtement féminin révèle la conception qu’un peuple a de l’amour et cet amour n’est lui-même qu’une forme de la pensée supérieure cristallisée…

    Utamaros Kunst

    February 9, 2021 / 0 Comments

    Der untenstehende Text ist ein Auszug aus dem Utamaro (ASIN: B016XN18OY) von Edmond de Goncourt, herausgegeben von Parkstone International. Die japanischen Alben zu durchblättern kommt einer wahren Initiation gleich, in deren Verlauf man ganz besonders von Utamaros herrlichen Arbeiten verzaubert wird. Seine prächtigen Holzschnitte erregen durch seine Liebe zu den Frauen die Fantasie, die Frauen, die er auf so sinnliche Weise in fallende Konturen, Faltenwürfe und Wellen großartiger japanischer Stoffe von derart ausgewählten Farben hüllt, dass dem Betrachter der Atem stockt, wenn er sich vorstellt, welch wundervolle Freuden sie dem Maler bedeuten. Denn in der weiblichen Kleidung offenbart sich die Vorstellung, die sich ein Volk von der Liebe macht, und diese Liebe ist wiederum…

    The Art of Utamaro

    February 3, 2021 / 0 Comments

    The text below is the excerpt from the book Utamaro (ASIN: B016XN18LC), written by Edmond de Goncourt, published by Parkstone International. To leaf through albums of Japanese prints is truly to experience a new awakening, during which one is struck in particular by the splendour of Utamaro. His sumptuous plates seize the imagination through his love of women, whom he wraps so voluptuously in grand Japanese fabrics, in folds, contours, cascades and colours so finely chosen that the heart grows faint looking at them, imagining what exquisite thrills they represented for the artist. For women’s clothing reveals a nation’s concept of love, and this love itself is but a form of lofty thought crystallised…

    Shunga: Traditional Japanese Pornography

    August 12, 2015 / 2 Comments

    Manga? Yes Anime? Yes Shunga? Ummmm… That’s one that not many people have heard of. Literally translated as “picture of spring”, it is an age-old Japanese erotic art form usually printed on woodblock. A sub genre of ukiyo-e, Shunga (春画) reached its pinnacle in the Edo Period from 1603 to 1867 and survived repeated government attempts at suppression. However, before they were shunned their widespread use and availability was commonplace and endeavoured to depict everyday life in the Edo. Carried around as lucky charms by Samurais and merchants as well as being offered to newly-wed’s as a type of sex education; shunga was accepted and used by everyone, regardless of…
