EDITORS COMMENTS
This color woodblock print, titled "The Nunobiki Waterfall, Sesshu Province (Sesshu Nunobiki no taki)" by Utagawa Hiroshige II, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Nunobiki Falls in Japan during the Edo period. Part of the series "One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces" (Shokoku meisho hyakkei), this masterpiece was created in 1859. The print depicts the majestic waterfall cascading down the mountainside, its crystal-clear waters shimmering under the lush green canopy of the surrounding forest. The tranquil scene is further enhanced by the serene reflection of the water in the pool below. The cartouche at the bottom of the print identifies the location as Nunobiki Falls in the province of Sesshu, which is now part of Hyogo Prefecture in Honshu, Japan. The print is a testament to the artistic skill of Utagawa Hiroshige II and his contemporaries, including Morita Chimpei and Kisai Rissho, who contributed to the series. The intricate details and vibrant colors, particularly the green hues, are characteristic of the ukiyo-e artistic school. The Nunobiki Waterfall is not only a natural wonder but also a significant cultural and historical landmark in Japan. This print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the beauty of nature was celebrated and cherished. The print is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art and a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese art and culture.
