EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Onmayagashi Edo" from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the vibrant and dynamic Edo period in Japan, spanning from 1615 to 1868. Created between 1830 and 1844 by Utagawa Kuniyoshi, a renowned Japanese artist of that era, this polychrome woodblock print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing everyday scenes with exquisite detail. In this magnificent depiction, we witness a heavy rainstorm drenching the streets of Edo. Three men huddle together beneath a large umbrella, seeking shelter from the relentless downpour. Oblivious to their presence, another figure passes by them without any concern for the torrential weather. Amidst this chaotic scene, one man carries a basket filled with eels for sale – an intriguing glimpse into the bustling commerce of that time. This humorous element adds a touch of whimsy to an otherwise ordinary moment captured on paper. What makes this artwork truly remarkable is Kuniyoshi's skillful use of color and ink on delicate paper. The vivid hues bring life to each character and enhance our immersion in this historical setting. The addition of three umbrellas further obscures our sight but also symbolizes unity among these individuals facing adversity together. It is through such masterpieces that we can appreciate both the artistic brilliance and cultural significance of prints like "Onmayagashi Edo. "
