An Impossible Feat by Imaginary Men, no. 8 from a series of 12 prints, c. 1708
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white woodblock print transports us back to the vibrant Edo period in Japan. Created by the talented artist Okumura Masanobu, this piece is part of a remarkable series that pushes the boundaries of imagination and artistic skill. In this particular print, we witness an extraordinary scene that defies all logic and possibility. A group of horsemen gracefully ride through the countryside, their horses galloping with power and elegance. What makes this feat truly impossible is that these men are not ordinary riders - they are imaginary beings brought to life through Masanobu's creative vision. The attention to detail in this artwork is astounding. Each figure exudes strength and determination as they navigate through the picturesque landscape. The composition captures a sense of movement and energy, drawing our eyes towards the central figure playing a samisen (shamisen), a traditional Japanese musical instrument. As we delve into this mesmerizing image, we are transported to another time and place where reality intertwines with fantasy. It serves as a testament to Masanobu's mastery as an ukiyo-e artist during the Tokugawa period. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's art gallery, "An Impossible Feat" invites us to explore both historical context and artistic innovation within Japanese culture during the eighteenth century. This woodblock print stands as an enduring symbol
