EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant polychrome woodblock print, titled "Poem by Abe no Nakamaro" is a masterpiece created by the renowned Japanese artist Hokusai during the late 18th to early 19th century. Part of the series "One Hundred Poems Explained by the Nurse" this artwork showcases Hokusai's exceptional talent in capturing both beauty and emotion. The print depicts a scene from ancient Japan, featuring Abe no Nakamaro, a poet who lived during the Heian period. The composition portrays Nakamaro standing on a riverbank under a full moon, his gaze fixed upon his homeland in the distance. With delicate brushstrokes and vivid colors, Hokusai skillfully conveys Nakamaro's deep sense of homesickness and longing for his country. The attention to detail is remarkable; every element in this piece has symbolic significance. The flags fluttering in the wind represent different regions of Japan while also evoking notions of patriotism. The lunar imagery alludes to poetry and literature as well as astronomy and science—a testament to Hokusai's ability to seamlessly blend various artistic disciplines. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this woodblock print exemplifies ukiyo-e—the traditional Japanese art form that flourished during the Edo period—while showcasing Hokusai's unique style within it. Through its intricate design and poetic narrative, "Poem by Abe no Nakamaro" invites viewers into an enchanting world where artistry meets storytelling with profound
