EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the series Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets, titled "Oe no Masafusa" and created in 1830 by the renowned artist Hokusai, takes us on a journey to 19th century Japan. The image showcases a picturesque landscape where daily life seamlessly merges with nature's beauty. In this woodcut illustration, we see a tranquil scene set outside, amidst lush greenery and blossoming cherry trees. A female musician, elegantly dressed in traditional attire, stands beside a meandering path that leads deeper into the countryside. Her presence adds an element of grace and harmony to the surroundings. The artist skillfully captures the essence of rural life during the Edo period through intricate details such as plants swaying gently in the breeze and water flowing peacefully nearby. This idyllic setting invites viewers to immerse themselves in its serenity. Notably, Hokusai's artistry extends beyond landscapes; it also encompasses human connection with music. In this piece, we witness how melodies can harmonize with nature itself as a male minstrel accompanies the woman's performance on an instrument. As we admire this fine art print housed at the State Hermitage collection in St. Petersburg, we are transported back centuries ago to experience Japan's rich cultural heritage firsthand. Through Hokusai's masterful depiction of Oe no Masafusa's poem within this visual masterpiece, we gain insight into both artistic expression and everyday existence during that era - truly capturing
