EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "From Picture Book of the Sumida River. A Glance of Both Shores" takes us on a visual journey back to 18th century Japan. Created by the renowned artist Hokusai, this colour woodcut captures the essence of life along the Sumida River with remarkable detail. The scene unfolds on a bustling riverbank, where a diverse crowd gathers amidst vibrant vegetation and charming village houses. The artist's mastery is evident in his ability to depict both external views of buildings and intimate observations of daily activities. From fishing boats gliding through the water to children playing near the shore, every element comes alive with vivid colours and meticulous attention. A woman dressed in an elegant kimono stands out among the crowd, her presence adding grace and beauty to this lively scene. As we explore further into this artwork, our eyes are drawn towards a majestic bridge that connects both shores - symbolizing not only physical transport but also bridging communities together. Hokusai's print offers us more than just an observation; it provides us with a glimpse into Japan's Edo period art movement known as ukiyo-e. This popular artistic style captured everyday life during that time and became highly influential worldwide. As we admire this stunning piece from Ashmolean Museum at University of Oxford, let us appreciate Hokusai's talent for immortalizing moments in history through his unique interpretation of landscapes and people. It serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries when it comes to transcending time and culture.
