About the Item
This antique lithograph features a serene domestic scene, likely from the Meiji period, showing two Japanese women in traditional kimonos attending to a young child. The setting appears to be indoors, possibly in a sitting room with sliding doors featuring decorative floral designs in the background. The women are seated on the floor, which is typical in Japanese culture, and the child is engaged in playful activity.
The child, dressed in a richly decorated outfit, is holding a small mallet, perhaps a traditional toy. The two women, possibly the child's mother and nanny, are seated nearby, both with gentle expressions, watching over the child. There is a warmth and tenderness in this family-oriented composition, showcasing the roles of women and the importance of family care in traditional Japanese households.
Translation of the Text:
The Japanese text at the bottom reads:
婦婦嫂嬰孩嬢童遊
Translation: "Women and Sisters Playing with the Infant Child"
This text confirms the familial and playful nature of the scene, emphasizing the nurturing roles of the women in the family.
Despite the signs of age, such as some discoloration and creases on the edges, this lithograph remains a delicate representation of everyday life in traditional Japanese culture. The hand-coloring adds a unique charm to the piece, particularly in the child's clothing.
