Jewel River at Ide (Ide no Tamagawa), ca. 1768 - A Glimpse into the Edo Period
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This polychrome woodblock print by Suzuki Harunobu takes us back to the enchanting world of 18th century Japan. Titled "Jewel River at Ide" it depicts a serene scene where a woman leisurely wades through the crystal-clear waters of the river, surrounded by vibrant flowers and lush greenery. Dressed in an exquisite kimono adorned with intricate patterns, she embodies elegance and grace as she navigates the river's gentle currents. Her traditional geta footwear, elevated on wooden platforms called pattens, protect her delicate tabi socks from getting wet. Harunobu's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing life to this idyllic landscape. The soft hues of ink and color on paper create a harmonious palette that complements nature's beauty. The inclusion of Fujiwara no Shunzei's poem adds another layer of depth to this artwork. It invites viewers to reflect upon the connection between literature and art during this period when poetry thrived alongside visual expression. Preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this woodblock print serves as a testament to Harunobu's mastery as one of ukiyo-e's most celebrated artists. Its enduring charm continues to captivate audiences today, offering a glimpse into Japan's rich cultural heritage and its people
