THE DAILY EVENING TKLKORA P11 PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 18G9. J Ar AWES 33 ART. We qnote from the advance nheots of Vto fRsf Kaphae! riumley's work, entitled- 'Aero America and Awn," the following intercnting essay on Japanese art, contributed ly Mr. John La Forge Interest in Japanese art must have much increased to have made Mr. Hunk in fear Rome malign influence upon his artists coming from this heathen source: and it is true that many artists are in the habit of looking to it for advice and confirmation of their previous tendencies and efforts in art. Our first knowlodp;o of Japanese is not recent. Japanese products have come into Europe for the last two hundred years. In li54 the importations into Holland of Japanese porcelain, lino specimens, amounted to 4-1,04 .'J pieces. Jnpnnoso museums were formed at Dresden and in Holland; and very good sale-catalogues (misonnfs) of the last rentury distinguish carefully between Japa nese and Chinese work. They havo always been admired and col lected, but, like other rave things, havo had their best merits passed over, bocauso they could bo mado the objects of a vulgar curi osity. Though they furnish a test, if over there was one, for discernment in art, tlnwo who make it their business to instruct in such matters were silent. Original appreciation of excellence is never abundant; even so late as 1W1, Mr. Owen Jones did not include Japa nese decoration in his '-Grammar of Orna ment. " Since then, the opening of tho treaty ports lias mado it familiar to all of us. We havo all admired tho many objects mado lovely by their workmanship; their iuimitablo lacquers, embodying on their surfaoo a complete school of ornament; their unrivalled ivory and jnetal work; their porcelains and enamels: their bronzes, of colors unknown to ours, cast and polished beyond our means: their colored printing, contrasting with our own brutal chromo-lithographs by its frankness, or by a delicacy equal to exquisite Land-work. These things all please the eye, as if with the sense of touch. On analysis, besides the wondrous finish, wo notice tho novelty of the design, its energy, its accuracy, its sentiment, very often the grandeur of its fityle, very often a stamp of individuality or personal talent, its recalling of natural ob jects, the enchanting harmony of its colors, and its exquisite adaptation to tho surfaco ornamented. Wo feel that wo are looking at perfect work, that we are in presence of a distinct civilization, where art is happily married to industry. These accompaniments to every day life, studied out, reveal u complete school of art. While it is still pure, uninfluenced and uninjured by new contacts, it will bo well to inquire into its value, nnd to learn what lessons wo can derive from it. Its limits seem at this day distinctly traced. What we shall know hereafter cannot contradict tho points already made, even if it should very much displace them. Notwithstanding that every nation Vicars intellectual fruit neither natural nor tasteful to others, this is truer of literature than of plastic art, for this last tweaks tho more universal language; and with out our aiming at a full analysis, the princi pal characteristics of this decorative art may be here described in some connected order. Most evident in Japancso art is the use of a marvellous decoration, tbo very crown of that power over color always an heir-loom of the East, and a separate gift from ours. To Eastern directness, fulness, and splendor the Japanese add a sobriety, a simplicity, a lovo of subdued harmonies and imperceptible gradations, and what may be called an intellectual refinement akin to something in the AVestern mind. If wo wish, their works can be for us a storehouse as ample and as valuable in its way as the treasures of form loft to us by the Greeks. For the Japanese, no combinations of colors bave been improbable, and their solutions of Buck as are put aside by Western knowledge recall the very arrangements of nature. Great beauty of color is apt to obscure Ihe structure upon which it rests, and excel lence of design is not seldom unrocogni.ed in the works of great colorists. Little as this is felt in the harmonious synthesis of Japa nese decoration, Japanese drawings and wood cuts in black and white allow us to gauge their abstract power of design and their knowledge of drawing. Stripped of those other beauties of color and texture so pecu liar to their precious work, these drawings give us in the simplest way their control of composition, that power in art which affects the imagination by the mere adjustment of lines and masses. Herein their work can be com pared to the best, in this tho most simple means of expression in art, for by this all its forms and periods aro united, and tho tattooing of the savage is connected with the dosigns of Michael Angelo. In fact it is the nearest expression of the will of the artist, which is the very foundation of art. Japanese Composition in ornamental desigu has de veloped a principle which separates it techni cally from all other sehools of decoration. U'his will have been noticed by all who have seen Japanese ornamental work, and might he called a principle of irregularity, or appa rent chance arrangement: a balancing of equal gravities, not of equal surfaces. A AVestern designer, in ornamenting a given surface, would look for some fixed points from which to start, and would mark the places where his mind had rested by exact and Symmetrical division?. These would be supposed by a Japanese, and his design would float over them, while they, though invisible, would bo felt lcnoath. Thus a fow ornaments a bird, a ilowor on one side of this page would bo made by an almost intellectual Influeneo to balance the large unadorned space remaining. "And so, by a principle familiar to painters, an appeal is mado to the higher ideas of de sign, to the desire of concealing art beneath a look of nature. It has tho advantage of allowing any division and extension, and super-imposition of other and contradictory designs. "With another analogy to tho higher forms of art, tho Japanese look to more sym metrical arrangement for their graver effects and religious symbolisms. To carry out this subtle conciliation of symmetry and chance, this constant reference to tho order of n.ituro, requires of course an incessant watching of all its mood and all its details. The daily record of such atteution fills tho sketch-books of all artists, and many of the little Japanese books of prints are nothing Imt far-Htitri'ri of such sketches. AVhotLwr they are careless or studied, an impression of nature disengages itself from them all; every one who sees them will be more or loss seusi vti to a spirit of observation unfamiliar to j hurried civilization. With the exception feiu" certain idealized htureolypiug of tho onj 'j face, they have a respoet for reality fcitics of tet 1,y understanding the neces sHentiul1" ' 'ny exceKfl 's m tuo direction of Jappho n''Hi and accentuation is a 110(0 of for plasiiuYr. If lu!y ll(lvo "ft the fueling Greek ancestry7 tn"t wo inherit from tho lect sense, a moi"'"' "md, they sh w a knowledge, ..f the character of the human form, and since drawing mny be divided into the drawing of form and the drawing of motion, they may lay claim to a full and consummate owner ship of the latter. If fhclf modes hhock our own conventionalities, wo cannot gainsay that never before have artists so lived at home with animals and plants; never has artistic skill held under a more subtle sway the thoughtless tribes of nea and air. The printed sketches of Hoksai, one of their later artists, aro typos of the many sidedness of tho Japaneso sketch-books. Birds, boasts, insecls, and plants their growth and movements; curves of motion in water falling, running, or evon thrown; the curl of smoke; the cere mony of tho Daimios, the shuflling of tho ltonzes, the strut of the soldiers, tho quarrels of tho populace, scenes of homo and out-door life, games of children, military exercises; all trades with the workers in them, and de formities born of their work; men too fat, men too thin; landscape effects; studies of architecture and perspective; and especially, and always, all possible positions of tho human body are noted ifcvrn in theso little albums. All this is done in a manner which would grace tho sketch-book of tho best draughtsman that ever lived, with sen sitive feeling, a detached- mind, and gentle humor. Art is a necessary 011 nggcratibn of nature, nnd implies a bear ing heavily upon certain distinctive points (curicaturn). A certain grotesqueness marks theso Japanese drawings. I do not refer to that side which, in all works of art, marks national differences, and which has for other nations something ludicrous; but there exists here a vein of humor which everything tells us must be a national expression. Their con stant and delicate observation recalls with a smile the secret mechanism of actions, from the slight indications of any habit to extrava gances of gesture nnd demeanor which ilourish in tin open life liko theirs. Their hand is light, and never suffers from that Western f.piiit of caricature which un derlines and insists and dwells upon its joke. A few lines give it. If we undorstaud it, so much the better; if not, wo shall not havo failed in a puzzle or a robus. Wo can still admire the accuracy of whatever is detailed, the comprehensiveness of what is suggested, often the grace and beauty, always the swing and energy of the d.;igti: for the Japa nese draughtsman unites wiihin him what is often separated in the Western artist the power of representing grace and awk wardness, and a feeling of dignity, with a sympathy for tho laugh on things. A Japa nese hero strains under a ponderous weight, or a lady iliils her fan, and it is hard to say whether we receive most distinctly tho im pression of manly effort or of female grace, 'ihe summons of tho idea is always answered' by their imagination; tbe real bends before their will, though never trampled upon, ar.d retaining nil its essential laws. However much tLo motive, the main forms or tho accessories help the story and belong to it, they retain their elementary construction, and their strength or their gra:o is merely framed by a more feeling line. Hoksai, in the inscriptions alongside of some designs equal in all but beauty to the Greek inven tions of the centaur or tho fawn, modestly remarks that it is more easy to draw things that no one has seen, than to represent things that every one sees. With us, however, this ease of imagination is not an every-day mat ter, though with us, also, tho greatest suc cesses in realism have been attained by men among tho greatest in imaginative power. Tho exception with us .seems to be an essen tial character with them, transforming na ture, deeply studied and wisely understood. Tho sum of all this makes up our first im pression that the two opposite! of realism and decoration form tho art of Japan, and that, in this successful blending, it takes a distinct place, never before filled in the logic.il history of art. Some of tho compromises made necessary by this combination are interesting. Chinese art is often ridiculed for its complete absence of perspective; bat our own practice of copy ing paintings, imitated in all their modelling and light and shade, upon tho curved surface of our vases, is itself an utterly barbaric notion. i The perspective of tho vase destroys the perspective of the ornament, which it is im possible even to see from a proper point of ' view. The treatment of perspective in ' Chinese decc-ration is, therefore, the result ' of a very sensible idea. Hut tho Japanese ' have improved upon tho usual Chinese man ner, and have invented an interesting com promise, in which certain rules of linear or isometric perspective are usod with a deep feeling for tho actual appearance of nature; and by tho uso of high horizons, so that the different planes shall como one above tho other, they manage to frame large composi tions within quite an illusive effect. It is owing to this bird's eye view that they are able to represent crowds and masses of people wiffli enviable felicity, and give the feeliug of open air and expanse to their smallest landscapes. In tho gradual separa tion of decoration and pictorial art with us there was at least this advantage, that tho artist was impelled to the individual study of nature that he might mirror the great world in the little world of his picture. To different origins wo shall reasonably look for the causes which have kept tho Japa neso artist to flat tints and boundary lines in drawing, and have prevented his pursuing others of nature's appearances, and attempt ing to give tho forms of things by tho oppo sition of light and shade, or tho influence of colored light. With the harmony which be longs to all good art, Japanese works, if they do not solve the latter problem, offer at least very successful sketches of such solutions. Their colored prints are most charmingly sen sitive to the coloring that makes up the ap pearance of different times of day, to tho re lations of color which mark tho different sea sons, so that their landscape efforts give us, in reality, the placo where tho illuminated air of tho seeno of action; and what is that but what we call tone? Like all true colorists, they are curious of local color, and of tho values of light and shade; refining upon this they use the lo-Jil colors to enhance the sensation of the timo, nnd the very colors of tho costumes belong to the hour or the season of the landscape. Eyes studious of tho combinations and oppositions of color, which must form tho basis of nil such representations, will enjoy thesi exqui site studies, of -whoso directness and delicacy nothing too much can bo said in prai-il'. The possibilities of art resemble very much those of life, and outside of this peculiar art we con imagine many openings. Wo cer tainly havo in tho colossal si at no of Daibutz, in its serene ideal of contemplation, a sur mise of some of the things that might have been in Japan. I have no space to consider whether, if the Japanese havo an ideal, it can bo contained, ns with the hecks, in tho dream of a per fected beauty. Tim snfii-iei.t ideal of real ism is character. Nor, any m.oro than in 1'. er.n antiquity, x".a wo expect to fiiid in Japanese art that deeper individual person ality the glory of our greatest art and which may perhaps be connected (however illogicolly it has been proved) with the educa tion of the Western world by Christianity. That attempt at bringing to the surface some of the subtlest, deepest, and most compli cated feelings of tho mind, which is the soul of the works of Leonardo, of Michael Angelo, of 14embrandt, has had npparently no exemplar outside of modern and Christian Europe. We shall miss that unconscious in feriority of the artist to his intention which so often gives a naive charm to early works. Art is a slow growth, as slow as civilization; and tho consummation of refinement in cer tain of their designs, meant to be repeated for common uses, is a sufiicicnt proof that it is old in Japan. Besides thai, wo have its Chinese antecedents; its long intercourse with China, which has an ancient art history, and tho antiquity of some of the few documonts we know. All our judgments have thus far been based upon tho pictorial art of Japan, the only accessible to us, and open to nny in quirer. Tho questions regarding other forms of art with them tho social questions con nected with the position of art among them ennnot be undertaken for want of room. Inquiry into Japaneso art would givo mate rial for appreciation of tho social state of the artist-workman in medieval times and in a military race, or again in Tagau antiquity, and for a study of tho advantages and disad vantages connected with a fixed sojial condi tion; to which comparison the analogies nnd differences with their Chinese brethren will add hIp. But it must now be sutlicient to have helped, in any way, to call attention to this nrt, which helps to bridge tho gulf be tween us and the Eastern gardens. It can bo tho source of useful influences from a living school, equal to any in the study of nature nnd the uso of decoration; and it offers, to all those willing to put themselves in tho proper mood, a new and fresh fountain of imagina tive enjoyment. EUGENIE. The Kuiprrn of the French nt C'oiiMniiiliioplc. A correspondent writes from Constanti nople under date of October 1;5, as follows: It was a beautiful sight when the Empress' yacht, along with twenty steamers, camo to day into the Bosphorus, which was almost literally covered with caiques. The Empress wns on deck with half a dozen other ladies all the time. In about ten minutes tho Sultan, who had been waiting her arrival at the palace, came out to her yacht in one of tho most magnificent of boats, manned by twenty men, with a gorgeous throne and canopy at the stern. After some difficulty in getting alongside the yacht, the Sultan rushed up the stairs with no little (mirtciiUiit She met him at . the top with a cordial greet ing, but did not kiss him, remember ing, perhaps, her own feelings when she saw Napoleon kiss Queen Victoria. They then fell back and looked at each other a moment. As they could not talk they did the next best thing; they bowed at each other, and then the Empress went down into the Sultan's boat. He followed immediately, and they sat side by side. She wore a ptain high-necked dress of straw-colored satin, with a trail two yards loug, nnd a bonnet of the same color. Tho current in front of tho paiaco is very strong, l'ivo hundred caiques and twenty-five steamers crowded with people were jammed together in horrible con fusion, and 1 can hardly understand now how we nil got out of it without loss of life. Tho Sultan, on lauding, conducted the Empress to her apartments and left her to rest there for some minutes. Ho then pre sented to her all the Ministers of the Sublime Porto and tho functionaries of the palace, and hastened across to his offi cial paiaco at Dolrua Baghdie, whither tho Empress followed him in about an hour, to pay her respects to the Valido Sultaua (Sul tan's mother). This old woman is, by un alterable custom, supreme within the palace, nnd she does not at all approve of the way in which the Sultan is disgracing himself with this bold-faced infidel woman. She has thrown every possible obstacle in her way, and made herself just as disagreea jle as she dared. She could not refuse to see her to day, but she overturned tho arrangements of the Sultan by refusing to receive the Empress with Mu.stapha l'asha's daughter ns lady in waiting and interpreter. She said she would teach Mussulman girls not to learn infidel lan guages and not to assume infidel customs. The visit of the Empress to her was short and formal, and she passed out of the harem into the apartments of the Sultan to dine with him in state. No doubt the Valido Sultana ground her teeth with rage, and no doubt she will rate tho Sultan for his indecent violation of all propriety; but the deed is done, and sho will rave in vain. A shameless female giaour has gone where even the Sultan's mother was never permitted to go. This shows more real pluck on the part of the Sultan than you can well realize. Thursday, Eugenie received the diplomatic corps at Beylerbey. In conversa tion with Mr. Morris, our Minister Besideut, the Empress declared that there was nothing which she more desired than to visit America that she was only waiting for some pretext for going, which she hoped would bo found before long. Sho conversed with all tho la dies in their own languages. Sho speaks English remarkably well, and certainly looks moro like an English than n Spanish lady. During the reception sho wore n robe of amber satin, with a very full train (with hoops, too, I believe), trimmed with mauvo velvet; her bonnet was also amber colored. Her only jewelry was a pearl necklace, and t-ho wore no earrings. EDUCATIONAL.. u s A J) M ELOCUTIONIST.
