About the Item
Title: Japanese Woman in Plum Blossom Grove: Antique Lithograph, 1880s
Description:
This elegant lithograph from the 1880s beautifully portrays a Japanese woman draped in a delicately patterned kimono, standing amid a grove of plum blossoms in bloom. Published by Sampson Low & Co. and printed in Paris by Imp. Lemercier & Cie, this exquisite work was directed by G. A. Audsley, a prominent British artist known for his deep appreciation of Japanese art.
The woman, rendered in warm golden and earthy brown tones, is captured in a moment of tranquil contemplation. Her figure is framed by the twisting branches of a flowering plum tree, its delicate blossoms softly illuminated against the deep black background. The careful detailing of the kimono’s subtle patterns and the sensitive shading of the woman’s face and posture highlight the quiet refinement of Meiji-era design.
The atmospheric composition of this lithograph evokes the timeless beauty of Japanese poetry and painting, where nature and human presence are harmoniously intertwined. The gentle glow of the plum blossoms against the night sky and the figure’s serene expression offer a meditative glimpse into a world of seasonal transitions and elegant calm.
This lithograph stands as a refined example of the Japonisme movement that captivated European audiences in the late 19th century, offering a window into the cultural dialogue between East and West and the enduring allure of Japanese art and tradition.
