EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Poem by Ise, from the series One Hundred Poems Explained by the Nurse" transports us to ancient Japan, immersing us in its rich literary and artistic traditions. Created by the renowned artist Hokusai in 1835, this colour woodblock print measures 26.7x37.5 cm and is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The image depicts a scene filled with symbolism and emotion. The poem written by Lady Ise (ca. 870-935) accompanies the artwork, adding depth to its meaning. The words express a poignant longing for a lost love: "Even for a space short as a joint of tiny reed from Naniwas marsh, we must never meet again in this life? This, do you ask?". Intriguingly, the print showcases workers engaged in construction activities on rooftops against a backdrop of traditional Japanese houses. It beautifully captures their laborious efforts as they diligently work together to build something meaningful. Hokusai's mastery shines through his attention to detail and composition, seamlessly blending poetry with visual artistry. Through this piece, he invites viewers to reflect on themes such as transience, separation, and human connection. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from centuries ago, it serves as a reminder that emotions transcend time and place – resonating deeply within our own hearts even today.
