EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning color woodblock print, titled "Haku Rakuten (Chinese: Bai Juyi) and the Fisherman," was created by the renowned Japanese artist Kubo Shunman during the early 19th century. The print depicts a serene scene from the Edo period, showcasing a poet, believed to be the famous Chinese poet Bai Juyi, sitting on a houseboat near a bridge. The poet is engrossed in writing on a shikishi ban, or calligraphy board, while a fisherman and his companions prepare their boats for a day of fishing. The intricate details of the scene are brought to life through the use of vibrant colors, particularly the golden hues of the torii gate and the green tones of the boats and the surrounding landscape. The print is a prime example of the ukiyo-e artistic style, which emphasized the beauty of the floating world and the everyday life of the common people. The fishermen, dressed in traditional garb, are shown transporting their boats under the watchful gaze of a torii gate, a symbol of Shinto religion. The print also features a dramatic, theatrical element, as if the scene is being played out on a Noh stage. The entrance to the print, adorned with a gate and a way in sign, further emphasizes the theatrical nature of the composition. This shikishiban sheet from an album surimono is a valuable heritage art piece, showcasing the rich cultural history of Japan during the Tokugawa period. The print's intricate details, vibrant colors, and theatrical composition make it a must-see for any art enthusiast or student of Japanese history and culture.
