This reproduction of a print by Kōno Bairei captures a documentary slice of life: a seated fisherman wearing a traditional conical hat. The illustration focuses on the character's posture and the simplicity of his equipment. The style is sober and factual, favoring the authentic representation of an ancestral trade rather than picturesque embellishment.
Part of Kōno Bairei's output (1844-1895), this work illustrates the artist's interest in scenes of everyday life during the Meiji era. Although renowned for his botanical and zoological plates, he also documented human figures and traditional activities, offering a precious testimony of Japanese society in his time.
This illustration is aimed at amateurs of Japanese art, history enthusiasts, and those who appreciate authentic representations of life in times past. It invites silent contemplation and brings a touch of humanity and serenity to an interior.
