EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour woodblock print, titled "Kintai Bridge at Iwokuni in Suo Province" by Keisai Eisen (Ikeda Yoshinobu), transports us to a serene and picturesque landscape in 19th century Japan. The artwork measures 36.8x50.3 cm and is part of a private collection. The Kintai Bridge takes center stage, gracefully spanning the river below with its elegant arches and sturdy wooden structure. It serves as both a practical crossing point and an artistic marvel, blending seamlessly into the natural surroundings. The hilly terrain surrounding the bridge adds depth to the composition, creating a harmonious balance between man-made structures and nature's beauty. Clouds drift lazily across the sky, casting shadows on the land below and enhancing the overall sense of tranquility. A few figures can be seen on or near the bridge, adding a touch of human presence to this idyllic scene. Their small size emphasizes their connection to their environment while highlighting the grandeur of this engineering feat. Keisai Eisen's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of this woodcut masterpiece. The vibrant colours bring life to each element within the frame, from the flowing water beneath to every blade of grass along the riverbank. This stunning artwork captures not only a specific moment in time but also embodies Japan's rich cultural heritage through its ukiyo-e style and masterful execution. It invites viewers into an enchanting world where artistry meets nature in perfect harmony.
