Edo period (1615-1868), circa 1832
A woodblock print, oban tate-e entitled Mino no kuni Yoro no taki (Yoro Waterfall in Mino Province), from the series Shokoku taki meguri (A Tour of Waterfalls in Various Provinces), circa 1832, published by Nishimuraya Yohachi (Eijudo), censor's seal Kiwame, signed Saki no Hokusai Iitsu hitsu.
37.6cm x 25.5cm (14 3/4in x 10in).
Footnotes
Published in 1832 by Eijudo, the same publisher of his "Thirty-six Views of Fuji", this series consists of eight oban prints of the most famous waterfalls in Japan. In this masterly set of vertical woodblock-print designs, Hokusai further explores water as a dynamic, cosmic, and spiritual force. In several prints the waterfall dominates the pictorial space, typically contrasting the majesty of nature with the tiny, fragile, human elements that feature in some of the designs.
Making liberal use of synthetic Prussian Blue—first imported to Japan only a few years before—in combination with traditional natural yellows, browns, and greens, he created a set of contrasting images of innovative composition and breathtaking variety.
Not confining himself to views that might have been relatively accessible to his core client base in Edo (present-day Tokyo), Hokusai selected spectacular waterfalls throughout central Honshu (Japan's main island) with a focus on sites of religious pilgrimage.
Prints from this series are in the collections of many museums around the world. For examples of this print, see The British Museum, collection no. 1937,0710,0.199; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, object no. JP2931.
A complete series was sold at Bonhams New York, 18th September 2024, lot 504.
