EDITORS COMMENTS
This color woodblock print by Suzuki Harunobu, titled "Poem by Sangi Takamura (Ono no Takamura)" from the untitled series "One Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets," dates back to the 18th century. The print showcases the renowned poet Sangi Takamura, also known as Ono no Takamura, dressed in elegant Heian period attire. He is depicted sitting on a boat, surrounded by other boats and fishermen, while holding a fishing rod and reciting a poem. The serene setting, with the poet's tranquil expression and the picturesque geographical features, evokes a sense of peace and harmony. The "One Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets" series, also known as "Hyakunin Isshu Uba Ga Etoki," was a popular artistic school in Japan during the Edo period. The series consisted of one hundred poems, each accompanied by an illustration explaining the poem. Harunobu's print is a prime example of the chuban size, which is smaller than the traditional oban size, making it more accessible to a wider audience. The intricate details of the clothing, the boats, and the poet's accessories are masterfully rendered in vibrant colors, showcasing Harunobu's exceptional skill as a block printer. The print offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japan, with its fusion of literature, art, and geography. The poet's connection to the natural world and the beauty of the sea and boats add to the overall charm of this exquisite work of art.
