EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Kiyomizu, from the series 'Seven Komachi (Nana Komachi)', c. 1791/92" by Hosoda Eishi, transports us to 18th century Japan during the Edo period. The artist's meticulous attention to detail and vibrant use of color bring this scene to life. The print depicts a serene garden with a magnificent fountain at its center. A graceful woman stands beside it, holding a delicate fan in her hand. Her elegant attire and poised demeanor reflect the refined beauty of Japanese culture during this time. The Kiyomizu temple, known for its stunning architecture and breathtaking views of Kyoto, serves as the backdrop for this tranquil setting. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this iconic location through his masterful technique in woodblock printing. Eishi's work is part of the artistic legacy known as ukiyo-e, which translates to "pictures of the floating world". This genre flourished during the Tokugawa period and depicted scenes from everyday life, landscapes, and famous landmarks like Kiyomizu temple. As we gaze upon this exquisite print at the Art Institute Chicago or any art gallery fortunate enough to house it within their collection, we are transported back in time to experience a moment of tranquility amidst Japan's rich cultural heritage.
