EDITORS COMMENTS
Harumichi no Tsuraki," a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Hokusai Katsushika, is the thirty-second image in the series "One Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets Explained by the Nurse," created around 1835-36. This masterpiece showcases the daily life and poetry of Harumichi no Tsuraki, a humble man from the Edo period. The scene unfolds at the edge of a tranquil river, where a man, identified as Harumichi no Tsuraki, stands on a small wooden plank, preparing to cross a footbridge. The bridge, with its elegant arches, spans the estuary, connecting the two banks of the river. The artist masterfully captures the serene atmosphere, with the calm water reflecting the blue sky and the gentle ripples created by the man's movements. To the right, a group of children play by the riverbank, adding a touch of warmth and liveliness to the scene. The poet, deep in thought, gazes at the bridge, seemingly lost in contemplation. The title of the poem inscribed at the top of the print, "Saki no," hints at the next line of the poem by the poet, "The bridge is long, and I am old." This exquisite color woodblock print, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, is a testament to Hokusai's artistic brilliance and his ability to capture the essence of daily life in Japan during the Edo period. The print is a valuable addition to the artistic heritage of Asia and a must-see for anyone interested in the history and culture of Japan.
