EDITORS COMMENTS
This polychrome woodblock print by Hokusai, titled "Poem by Minamoto no Muneyuki Ason, from the series One Hundred Poems Explained by the Nurse" transports us to 19th century Japan. The artwork, created during the Edo period, beautifully captures a wintry scene filled with rich cultural symbolism. In this piece, we see a lone male figure standing amidst snow-covered mountains and a smoky fire. Dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, he wears leggings and sandals made of straw. His attire reflects both practicality and elegance as it protects him from the cold while showcasing his heritage. The man's solitude evokes a sense of loneliness and contemplation against the backdrop of nature's beauty. As snowflakes gently fall around him, he reads or recites poetry written by Minamoto no Muneyuki Ason. This connection between literature and nature is deeply rooted in Japanese culture. Hokusai masterfully uses ink and color on paper to create depth and texture within this woodblock print. The soft hues of blue evoke a feeling of tranquility while contrasting with warm tones emanating from the fire. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this artwork exemplifies Hokusai's skill in ukiyo-e printing technique. It serves as an enduring testament to Japan's artistic legacy during the 19th century that continues to captivate viewers today.
