burnedshoes: © Detroit Publishing Company, ca. 1905, A Southern chain gang” TIME magazine’s Lightbox recently ran a feature on Shorpy: There’s always something interesting about history—it’s often just a matter of knowing where to find it. That’s the idea behind Shorpy.com, an eye-popping collection of historical imagery that casts a modern light on an astonishing array of photographs long-hidden in the Library of Congress archives. Named after a 12-year-old coal miner in a picture by the great Lewis Hine, Shorpy.com offers new, high-definition life to old images, restoring the often-breathtaking detail found in the original negatives.

yama-bato: Byōbu or folding screen in two panels, ornamented with a scene of stylized pine trees on a beach above sunlit waves. Executed in a collage of washi or handmade Japanese paper. Signed on the lower left corner with a square seal-form signature by the artist: Issei (Yamauchi Issei, born 1929). Shōwa era, circa 1955 – 1965. An Aichi Prefecture artist, Yamauchi Issei became famous for his work in paper collage. From 1953, he exhibited widely at the Nitten, for which he was also invited to serve as a juror four times. His art was commissioned for presentation gifts to the Shōwa Emperor. Among the prizes awarded to Issei for his work was the tokusen or grand prize at the 1965 Nitten, the Ministry of Education New Crafts Prize in 1984, and in 1997 the Prime Minister’s Prize. Painting with paper fibers, Issei renders the classical theme of pines over a wave-washed beach. The collage employs felt-like textures in the darkly shadowed pines, edged with gold to catch the light reflecting off the waves. The stark geometry of the trees fades in the foreground, balanced by the water rippling in a haze of light behind. With this brilliant screen, Yamauchi Issei celebrates nature with the impressionist abstraction of the era. The artist scaled heights with paper collage seldom attempted, creating a work of emotional depth and exceptional craftsmanship.Byōbu or folding screen in two panels, ornamented with a scene of stylized pine trees on a beach above sunlit waves.
