Futamigaura, the Wedded Rocks, 1896
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating color woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Kobayashi Kiyochika, created during the Meiji Era (1868-1912) of Japan's history. This masterpiece is part of Kobayashi's "Sketches of Famous Places in Japan" series, showcasing the rich cultural and geographical diversity of the country. The print depicts the iconic Futamigaura, or the Married Couple Rocks, located in Fukuoka, Japan. This unique rock formation, consisting of two large boulders connected by a rope, is a popular tourist attraction and holds significant religious significance. According to local legend, the rocks represent the mythical couple Amaterasu and Susanoo, the deities of the sun and the sea, respectively, who were believed to be married at this very site. The print captures the breathtaking coastal landscape, with the vibrant blue sea meeting the rugged, rocky shoreline. The intricate details of the rocks' textures and the ripples in the water are skillfully rendered, while the ropes connecting the rocks add a sense of unity and harmony to the composition. The print's rich colors and bold lines are characteristic of the Ukiyo-e (floating world) style, a traditional Japanese art form that emphasizes the beauty and transience of life. This woodblock print is a testament to the artistic prowess of Kobayashi Kiyochika and the enduring allure of Japan's natural and cultural heritage. It invites us to explore the wonders of the world and appreciate the unique beauty of the places that have shaped our history and continue to inspire us today. This print is now part of the permanent collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to captivate audiences and inspire new generations of artists and art lovers alike.
