EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Peasants Harvesting Vegetables near Kyoto in the Middle Ages" takes us on a journey back in time to rural Japan. The scene, beautifully captured by Gukei and Sumiyoshi Hirozumi, showcases the hard work and simplicity of life during this era. In this picturesque landscape, we see diligent farmers laboring amidst a foggy morning. The peasants are engrossed in their task of cultivating vegetables along the riverbank, while birds gracefully soar above them. A quaint wooden bridge connects two huts nearby, adding charm to the rustic setting. The image evokes a sense of tranquility as nature harmoniously blends with human activity. It transports us to an age where agriculture was not just a means of survival but also deeply intertwined with daily life and culture. Printed in The Kokka magazine in 1900-01, this color lithograph offers a glimpse into historical Japanese society's agricultural practices. It serves as both an artistic representation and an educational tool for understanding the importance of farming within local communities. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, let us appreciate the dedication and resilience displayed by these hardworking peasants who sustained themselves through their laborious efforts on fertile lands near Kyoto centuries ago.
