English: Robert Frederick Blum, American, 1857–1903
That is Where All Babies Live in Japan, 1890–92 Watercolor on board 35.7 x 27.4 cm. (14 1/16 x 10 13/16 in.) Gift of Charles Scribner III, Class of 1973 and Graduate School Class of 1977 x1993-163 In an 1893 account of his journey to Japan published in Scribner’s Magazine, Blum writes about his "wild desire" to visit that country, which he traces back to his purchase of a Japanese fan at a music festival in Cincinnati when he was just fifteen years old. After studying at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Blum had his dream realized when Scribner’s commissioned him in 1890 to illustrate a series of articles about Japan, where he remained for two and a half years. Blum’s full-page illustration, for which this is a study, accompanies a text describing how children as young as five carried their siblings on their backs while they ran, jumped, flew kites, and fished for frogs. |
