EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the series Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets: Shikishi Naishinno, c1830, showcases the incredible talent of artist Hokusai. The image, found in the collection of the State Hermitage in St. Petersburg, takes us back to 19th century Japan during the Edo period. The scene depicted is a snapshot of daily life inside a traditional Japanese home. The woodcut illustration beautifully captures the intricate details of both the interior and exterior architecture. A servant can be seen ascending a staircase while carrying a kettle, suggesting that this may be an occupation related to heating or daily household tasks. The color palette used adds depth and warmth to this stunning landscape. It transports us to another time and place where we can almost feel ourselves stepping into this serene country setting. Princess Shikishi herself might have resided within these very walls, as her name is mentioned in connection with this artwork. This further enhances our understanding of its historical significance and cultural relevance. Hokusai's fine artistry shines through every brushstroke in this print, reminding us why he remains one of Japan's most celebrated artists. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply captivated by Japanese history and culture, this piece offers a glimpse into a world long gone but forever preserved through Hokusai's masterful craftsmanship.
