Gathering Cliff Fungus at Kumano, Kishu Province
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating color woodblock print created by Utagawa Hiroshige II in 1860, as part of his renowned series "One Hundred Views of Famous Views in the Various Provinces." This exquisite work of art showcases the rugged cliffs of Kumano in Kishu Province, located on the Kii Peninsula in Japan. The print depicts a group of men, dressed in traditional clothing, precariously hanging over the edge of the cliff, gathering clumps of fungus growing in the crevices. The men are shown in various positions, some reaching high up with baskets, while others balance on thin branches for a better reach. The dangerous task is made even more perilous by the rough waves crashing against the cliffs below, adding an element of risk to their endeavor. The background is dominated by the towering cliffs, with their jagged edges and intricate patterns, creating a sense of depth and texture. The green color of the fungus contrasts beautifully with the brown and gray tones of the cliffs, adding a pop of vibrant color to the scene. The cartouche at the bottom right of the print bears the title "Kishu Kumano Iwatake Tori," along with the names of the artist, Morita Chimpei and publisher, Koshibei. This print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan during the Edo period, and a reminder of the hard work and dedication required to survive in the natural world. The intricate details and vivid colors make it a true masterpiece, worthy of display in any art center, art gallery, or art institute. The print is also a fascinating glimpse into the geography and culture of Japan during the nineteenth century, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of Asian or world art.
