EDITORS COMMENTS
This color woodblock print, titled "Suidobashi Chanomizu" is part of the renowned series "One Hundred Views of Musashi" created by Kobayashi Kiyochika in 1884. The artwork, measuring 35.1x23.5 cm, can be found at the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery in the Smithsonian Institution in the United States. The image transports us to a wintry landscape in East Asia during Japan's Meiji era. A river flows peacefully through the scene as delicate snowflakes gently fall from above, creating a serene and ethereal atmosphere. In this picturesque setting, we witness figures going about their daily lives amidst nature's beauty. Ferrymen are seen navigating their boats across the river, braving both icy waters and snowy conditions with unwavering determination. Their presence adds a touch of human activity to an otherwise tranquil vista. A hint of smoke rises from afar, suggesting warmth emanating from nearby dwellings or perhaps even a cozy fire crackling within one of them. This contrast between cold exterior surroundings and comforting interior spaces evokes feelings of coziness and refuge against winter's chill. Kiyochika masterfully captures this harmonious blend of natural elements and human existence through his meticulous attention to detail and use of vibrant colors typical for Japanese woodblock prints. As we admire this exquisite piece from Kiyochika's iconic series, we are reminded once again why his works continue to captivate audiences worldwide:
