■MESSAGE from the EDITOR■
6月7日の成瀬記念館(日本女子大学構内)訪問に引き続き、同月11日、川崎市の公園墓地「春秋苑」に平塚らいてうの墓参と続けて行ってきました。
ご存じのとおり、平塚らいてうは、1911年に雑誌「青踏」を発刊し、日本の女性の社会進出のために大きな社会変化をもたらしたことで知られています。
笠井彦乃は、「青踏」が発刊された時、らいてうの卒業した日本女子大学の附属高等女学校にいました。(正確には事情で彼女が学校に在籍したのは1学期だけだったので9月創刊の「青踏」は時期が微妙にずれてますが、それまでのらいてうの動きは既に社会変化を起こしていました。)
これが、日本の中心地といえる東京・日本橋に住み同校に通う彦乃にどのような影響を与えたかということは実に興味深いところです。
まずはこの時代背景を知ろうと読書を続けているのですが、興味深い関係者(特に「青踏」に関わった女性たち)の数が非常に多いのと、その一人一人の活動内容が複雑なので、完全に私の能力をオーバーしていて、時間がかかりそうですが、これからも頑張っていきます。
Following a visit to the Naruse Memorial Hall (on the grounds of Japan Women's University) on June 7, I went to visit the grave of Hiratsuka Raicho at Shunjuen, a park cemetery in Kawasaki City, on the 11th of the same month.
As you may know, Hiratsuka Raicho is known for publishing the magazine "Seito" in 1911, which brought about major social change for Japanese women's advancement in society.
When "Seito" was published, Kasai Hikono was a student at the attached high school of Japan Women's University, the same school Raicho graduated from. (To be precise, due to circumstances, she was only enrolled at the school for one semester, so the September publication of "Seito" is slightly off, but Raicho's actions up until that point had already brought about social change.)
It is very interesting to see what kind of impact this had on Hikono, who lived in Nihonbashi, Tokyo, the center of Japan, and attended the same school.
First of all, I have been reading to understand the background of this era, but there are so many interesting people involved (especially the women involved in “Seito”) and the activities of each of them are so complex that it is completely beyond my capabilities. It will probably take a long time, but I will continue to do my best.

『竹久夢二 かわいい手帖 大正ロマンの乙女ワールド』(石川桂子編、河出書房新社)より

3 薔薇
雑誌『少女画報』大正12年(1923)6月号は「私の好きな花」という企画を実施し、読者投票で薔薇が2位になりました(1位は鈴蘭)。
夢二も薔薇は筆を多くとった花でした。薔薇は花びらが数多く重なって咲くことが特徴で、華やかなイメージがありますが、夢二は花びらと全体のシルエットをシンプルに表現することもありました。丸みを帯びた花のシルエットに、桃や紅の色を施して、夢二はあたたかみあふれる薔薇を描きました。
The June 1923 issue of the magazine Shojo Gaho ran a project called "My Favorite Flower," in which roses came in second in a readers' poll (the first place was lily of the valley).
Yumeji also painted roses many times. Roses are characterized by the many overlapping petals that bloom, giving them a gorgeous image, but Yumeji sometimes depicted the petals and overall silhouette simply. By applying pink and red colors to the rounded silhouette of the flower, Yumeji painted roses that full of warmth.

To better understand the person named Yumeji Takehisa, his life, unique characteristics, work etc. are introduced here.
4 出会って2カ月余りで電撃結婚!
1906年(明治39)10月、岸たまきが早稲田大学に近い早稲田鶴巻町で絵ハガキ店「つるや」開店しました。たまきは美術教師で日本画家の妻として富山に住んでいましたが、夫が病没したため、2人の子どもを残して上京し、東京で事業をしている兄の援助で絵葉書店を開店したのです。
「つるや」は、美人店主がいる店ということで開店早々大評判となり、これを聞きつけた夢二は早速この店を訪れました。そして、この店に図案と風景の絵葉書しか売っていないことを知ると、自ら描いた早慶戦野球の絵葉書等をすぐに持参し、たまきに売ってもらいました。
こうして夢二は毎日店に通いつめ、翌年の1月、出会ってからわずか2ヵ月余りで結婚してしまったのです。当時、夢二はまだ22歳でした。
この結婚をきっかけとして、大きな魅力的な瞳と激しい気性を持つ美しいたまきをモデルとした「夢二式美人」が誕生することになったのです。(つづく)
4. A surprise marriage just over two months after meeting!
In October 1906, Tamaki Kishi opened a postcard shop called "Tsuruya" in Waseda-Tsurumakicho, near Waseda University. Tamaki was the wife of an art teacher and a Japanese painter, living in Toyama. But as her husband died of illness she left her two children behind and moved to Tokyo, where she opened a postcard bookstore with the help of her brother, who was running a business there.
"Tsuruya" gained a great reputation soon after opening, as it had a beautiful female owner, and when Yumeji heard about it, he immediately visited the store. And when he found out that the store only sold postcards of designs and landscapes, he immediately brought along postcards of Waseda-Keio baseball games that he had drawn and asked Tamaki to sell them.
Yumeji continued to visit the store every day, and in January of the following year, they were married, just over two months after meeting. Yumeji was only 22 years old at the time.
This marriage led to the creation of the "Yumeji Style Beauty," modeled on the beautiful Tamaki, with her big, attractive eyes and fiery temperament. (To be continued)
