■MESSAGE from the EDITOR■
最近、日本に大勢の観光客が押し寄せています。
理由は日本の伝統芸術に魅されているのか、日本の「おもてなし」に期待してか、はたまた安心・安全かつ清潔な環境を満喫したいのか、とにかく観光地には外国人が溢れています。
東京では、待ちに待った桜が、夢二最愛の女性である笠井彦乃誕生日3月29日に開花宣言されました。いよいよ本格的な春の始まりです。今年は大変衝撃的な元日を迎えましたが、私たちは能登地方の早期復興を祈りながら、2024年の年をより良い年にしていきましょう。
ところで、前号でリニューアルを高らかに通知したのに大変恐縮ですが、私が夢中になりすぎてボリュームが大きすぎるようになったたため、大幅簡素化しました。改めて本号をリニューアル版第１号とします。
そして、来年2025年が夢二と最愛の女性・笠井彦乃が東京のニコライ聖堂で愛を誓ってから110周年であることから、プロジェクト「夢二と彦乃 愛のかたち2025」がいよいよ明日からスタートします。大正時代の新たな文化の風に吹かれながら確かめあった夢二と彦乃の愛のかたちを、彦乃の視点から追っていきます。どうぞこのブログにご期待ください。
以上、よろしくお願いいたします。
Recently, a large number of tourists have been flocking to Japan.
Tourist destinations are full of foreigners, whether it's because they're fascinated by traditional Japanese art, looking forward to Japanese hospitality, or just wanting to enjoy a safe, secure, and clean environment.
In Tokyo, the long-awaited cherry blossoms were declared blooming on March 29th, the birthday of Yumeji's beloved woman, Hikono Kasai. It's finally the official beginning of spring.
This year's New Year's Day was a shocking one, but let's pray for the early recovery of the Noto region and make 2024 a better year.
By the way, I'm very sorry to announce the renewal in the last issue, but I got too excited and the volume became too large, so I've simplified it considerably. Once again, this issue will be the first of the renewed edition.
Next year, 2025, will be the 110th anniversary of Yumeji and his beloved Hikono Kasai pledging their love at the Nikolai Cathedral in Tokyo, so the new project "Yumeji and Hikono – Their Way of Love 2025" will start tomorrow. I will follow from Hikono's perspective the way Yumeji and Hikono found love amid the new cultural winds of the Taisho era. Please look forward to this blog.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
▼夢二画「憩い Relaxation」（竹久夢二）▼
今年の1月16日、夢二の最愛の女性笠井彦乃の命日に神田神保町の古書店で偶然見つけた夢二の屏風作品「憩い」の左半分を見つけて購入。
そうしたら、3月29日、彦乃の誕生日にインターネットオークションで右半分を発見。しかもその時は入札締め切りまで15分！これは運命と一気に落札しました。
これで絵の中にいる人待ち顔の彼女の願いは叶い、「憩い」は対になった。彦乃の思いが伝わったようです。
明後日から開始する新プロジェクト「夢二と彦乃 愛のかたち 2025」への最高の贈物となりました。
On January 16th of this year, the anniversary of the death of Yumeji's beloved woman, Hikono Kasai, I happened to come across the left half of Yumeji's folding screen work ``Ikoi (relaxation)'' at a used bookstore in Kanda Jinbocho and purchased it.
Then, on March 29th, Hikono's birthday, I found the right half at an internet auction. And then, there were only 15 minutes until the bidding deadline! As fate would have it, I won the bid all at once.
With this, the girl's wish with the waiting face in the picture has come true, and ``ikoi (relaxation)'' has become a pair. It seems that Hikono's feelings have been conveyed!
It was the best gift for the New Project ``Yumeji and Hikono - Their Way of Love 2025'' which starts the day after tomorrow.

■ 夢二の“カワイイ”■ YUMEJI’S “KAWAII” ■
『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
Based on “Takehisa Yumeji Kawaii Notebook Female World of Taisho Roman” by Keiko Ishikawa, Curator of Takehisa Yumeji Art Museum
＜第1章＞「かわいい×デザイン」
海外でも高く注目される「Kawaii」ですが、大正ロマンを象徴する画家・竹久夢二は、自身がデザインした小物を大正時代（1912～1926）に「可愛い」という言葉で紹介し、暮らしや装いを彩るための仕事に才能を発揮。
また、華奢（きゃしゃ）で可憐な姿形を描き表した少女像の＜抒情画＞を確立し、乙女たちが憧れる「かわいい」の世界観を、夢二は時代に先駆けて表現しました。おしゃれなデザイン画や素朴で微笑ましいカット絵、加えて愛らしい子供絵にも筆をとり、夢二は現代にも通じる「かわいい」を数多く残しました。
<Chapter 1> “Cute × Kawaii”
"Kawaii" has received a lot of attention overseas, but Yumeji Takehisa, a painter who symbolizes Taisho romance, introduced accessories he designed with the word "kawaii" in the Taisho period (1912-1926), and used them to decorate people's lives and clothing. He demonstrated his talent in the work that colored the world.
Yumeji also established the ``lyrical painting'' of girls depicting delicate and pretty figures and was ahead of his time in expressing the worldview of ``cuteness'' that maidens admired. In addition to stylish design drawings and simple and heartwarming cut-outs, Yumeji also drew adorable children's drawings, leaving behind many ``cute'' images that are still relevant today.
