EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Sur et sous le pont de Ryogoku (Tokyo) - On top and beneath Ryogoku Bridge" captures the essence of life in 18th century Tokyo. Created by Utamaro, Kitagawa in 1796, this colour woodcut showcases the bustling activity around the iconic Ryogoku Bridge. In this vibrant scene, we see a river teeming with boats and ships as they navigate through the waterway. The bridge itself is adorned with numerous people crossing it from both directions, creating a sense of movement and energy. Men and women dressed in traditional Japanese costumes can be seen strolling along the bridge or enjoying a leisurely boat ride. One particular detail that stands out is a woman holding a sunshade to shield herself from the sun's rays. This small touch adds depth to the composition while also highlighting cultural practices of that time period. Utamaro's skillful use of color brings life to every element within this print, showcasing his mastery as an artist. The image transports us back to ancient Japan, allowing us to witness firsthand its rich traditions and vibrant atmosphere. This print serves as a window into history, offering viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in Tokyo's past while appreciating Utamaro's artistic brilliance.
