EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning polychrome woodblock print created by Kitagawa Utamaro during the Edo period in Japan. This masterpiece captures not only the beauty of nature but also provides insights into Japanese culture and traditions. In this artwork, Utamaro skillfully depicts a serene landscape with an estuary flowing through it. The full moon shines brightly in the night sky, illuminating both land and water with its ethereal glow. A family can be seen on the riverbank, engrossed in their harvesting activities. The mother tenderly holds her child while watching over him as he plays near the mouth of the river. Utamaro's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this print - from the delicate lines that define each figure to his masterful use of color to bring life to this scene. Through his artistry, we are transported back to a time when people lived harmoniously with nature and celebrated its cycles. This woodblock print not only showcases Utamaro's artistic talent but also serves as a valuable historical document depicting rural life during 18th-century Japan. It reminds us of our connection to our environment and how important it is to preserve our cultural heritage for future generations. Displayed proudly at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, "The Full Moon at the Time of Imo Harvest" continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and profound depiction of motherhood
