EDITORS COMMENTS
The Carriage-pulling Scene" (Kurumabiki no dan) is a captivating woodblock print from the series "Sugawara's Secrets" (Sugawara denju) created by the renowned Japanese artist Sadahide Utagawa around 1830-1844. This masterpiece showcases a lively and dynamic composition, with a group of men and a woman gathered around a carriage, attempting to pull it up a steep hill. The scene is set against a backdrop of a serene landscape, with the vibrant colors of green and blue dominating the print. The men in the image are depicted barefoot, their muscles straining as they exert their strength to move the carriage. The woman, dressed in traditional Japanese attire, watches on with a concerned expression. The carriage itself is a grand display of elegance and luxury, with intricate designs adorning its sides. The print is a prime example of the Utagawa school's artistic style, which was popular during the 19th century in Japan. It is also a testament to the school's mastery of color woodblock printing, with the vivid hues of green and blue adding depth and dimension to the image. The location of the scene is not explicitly stated, but the tranquil setting suggests a rural area. The men in the image are of various ages and sizes, indicating the community coming together to help one another in times of need. Sadahide Utagawa, also known as Gountei Sadahide, Gyokuran Hashimoto, and Gyokuransai Sadahide, was a prolific artist during the Edo period. His works often depicted scenes from everyday life, making them popular among the masses. This print, with its lively energy and intricate details, is a testament to his artistic skill and the enduring appeal of Ukiyo-e art.
