EDITORS COMMENTS
Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji." This print showcases the serene beauty of rural life in Japan during the Edo period. The scene unfolds at Onden, a location in Tokyo, where a waterwheel stands proudly in the foreground. The wheel, driven by the force of the river, turns steadily, supplying water to the surrounding community. The image is filled with a sense of tranquility, as men and women, dressed in traditional attire, gather around the wheel, engaged in their daily tasks. Children play nearby, adding a touch of innocence to the scene. Mount Fuji, the iconic Japanese mountain, can be seen in the background, its snow-capped peak rising majestically above the landscape. The mountain, an active volcano, has long been a source of inspiration for Japanese artists and poets. Hokusai masterfully captures the contrast between the industrial waterwheel and the natural beauty of the mountain. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period. The use of vibrant colors, intricate details, and the skillful application of the woodblock printing technique, make this print a visual delight. The Waterwheel at Onden is not just a depiction of a scene, but a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of rural Japan during the 19th century." This print is part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). It is a valuable addition to the museum's extensive collection of Asian art and a reminder of the rich artistic legacy of Japan.
