EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "From the series Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets: Ono no Takamura" takes us on a journey back to 19th century Japan during the Edo period. Created by the renowned artist Hokusai, this woodcut transports us to a seascape where we witness an intense and dramatic scene. The image depicts a group of sailors aboard a boat, surrounded by towering waves crashing against rocky cliffs. In the foreground, we see a female figure standing defiantly on one of these rocks, her vibrant kimono billowing in the wind. Her presence exudes strength and resilience as she gazes out into the treacherous waters. The composition evokes a sense of exploration and adventure while also hinting at themes of punishment and warfare. The turbulent sea serves as both an obstacle and a symbol of danger for these brave sailors who navigate its unpredictable currents. Hokusai's masterful use of color adds depth to this striking artwork. The rich hues bring life to every element - from the vivid blues of the water to the warm tones adorning each character's attire. As we contemplate this mesmerizing piece from Hokusai's collection housed in St. Petersburg's State Hermitage museum, we are reminded once again why his works continue to captivate audiences worldwide centuries later.
