EDITORS COMMENTS
Beneath Mannen Bridge in Fukagawa" is a captivating color woodblock print from the renowned series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" by the Japanese artist Hokusai, created around 1830-33. This masterpiece showcases the picturesque scene of the Onagi River estuary in Fukagawa, Tokyo, during the Edo period. The print depicts a bustling scene of activity on the river, with boats of various sizes and shapes navigating the waterway. The bridge, Mannen Bridge, spans the river and connects the two banks, with pedestrians and a man in traditional Japanese attire crossing it. In the background, Mount Fuji can be seen in the distance, its snow-capped peak a striking contrast against the beige and blue landscape. The print is a prime example of Hokusai's masterful use of color and composition. The green color dominates the scene, with the lush vegetation along the riverbanks and the water reflecting the surrounding scenery. The cartouche at the bottom left of the print bears the artist's name, "Hokusai," and the title of the series, "Fugaku sanjurokkei." This print is a testament to Hokusai's artistic genius and his ability to capture the essence of Japan's natural beauty and everyday life during the Tokugawa period. It is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period. This woodblock print is part of the Art Institute of Chicago's collection, showcasing the museum's commitment to preserving and sharing the world's artistic treasures with the public. It is a must-see for anyone interested in Japanese art, history, or culture.
