「寿司」
If you go to a Japanese restaurant occasionally, you should be familiar with sashimi and sushi. Sushi is a dish prepared with vinegared rice and a piece of raw fish or seafood placed on top. It is sometimes wrapped in an algae called laver (Japanese: Nori).
This painting does not look like a real thing, it is also different from the photos appeared on the restaurant menu. The "sushi" in the painting gives a completely different feeling, giving a sense of depth; because it is no longer a food, it is a "still life", a "work of art".
The objects chosen for a still life painting often have a special meaning, either on a personal, cultural, societal, religious or philosophical level. The magic of still life is that they can show us a new way of looking at the ordinary objects around us. Once captured with paint, ink, pastels or any other medium - the objects take on a whole new meaning. They are imbued with a life beyond the ordinary.
Created in Edo period
Artist: Ryuryukyo Shinsai (柳々居辰斎; Japanese, active ca. 1799–1823)
