Catching Sweetfish in the Tama River under the Autumn Moon
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour woodblock print by Hiroshige, Ando or Utagawa. The artwork, housed at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, transports viewers to a serene autumn evening along the Tama River. The scene depicts a deep-blue water expanse with a charming footbridge stretching across its middle distance. In this tranquil setting, several people can be seen engrossed in fishing activities. One fisherman stands out as he receives assistance from a naked child beside him. The full moon gracefully peeks through the top of a willow tree on the left side of the composition, adding an ethereal touch to the scene. A line of hills completes the background panorama. The print's publisher is Maruya Jinpachi (Marujin, Enjud?), and it bears Hiroshige's signature along with Tanaka Heishir?'s censor seal. This particular artwork belongs to "Snow, Moon, and Flowers at Famous Places (Meisho setsugekka)" series. With its delicate portrayal of nature and human interaction under moonlight, this woodblock print captures both tranquility and liveliness simultaneously. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in Japan's rich cultural heritage while appreciating Hiroshige's mastery of capturing fleeting moments within his prints.
