EDITORS COMMENTS
Mushroom Gathering at Kumano in Kii Province," a captivating woodblock print from the series "One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces" by Utagawa Hiroshige II, dates back to the 19th century. This exquisite work of art, created in 1860, showcases a group of men delicately picking mushrooms from a cliffside in Kii Province, also known as Kishu Kumano. The print captures the serene beauty of the Kii Peninsula, with its lush greenery and towering cliffs. The men, dressed in traditional clothing, are seen hanging precariously from ropes, their baskets filled with the day's harvest. The dangerous cliffs and the perilous position of the gatherers add an element of risk and adventure to the scene. The vibrant green color of the foliage contrasts beautifully with the rocky cliffs and the blue sky, creating a stunning visual effect. The cartouche at the bottom left of the print bears the title "Kumano Iwatake Tori," while the signature of the artist, Ni Daime Utagawa Hiroshige, is located at the bottom right. This print is a testament to the artistic skill and creativity of Utagawa Hiroshige II during the Edo period. It provides a glimpse into the daily life of the people of Japan during that time and showcases the natural beauty of the country. The print is a valuable addition to any art collection and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Asia.
