Painting Description
Minamoto no Tsunenobu from the series "Hyakunin Isshu Ubaga Etoki" (One Hundred Poems as Explained by the Nurse) is a woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai. This series is a visual interpretation of the classical Japanese anthology of one hundred waka poems, each composed by a different poet. The anthology, known as "Hyakunin Isshu," was compiled by the poet Fujiwara no Teika in the early 13th century and has been a significant cultural and literary touchstone in Japan.
Katsushika Hokusai, an influential figure in the ukiyo-e genre, is best known for his iconic work "The Great Wave off Kanagawa." However, his series "Hyakunin Isshu Ubaga Etoki" showcases his versatility and deep appreciation for classical Japanese literature. In this series, Hokusai brings to life the poems through intricate and expressive illustrations, providing a visual narrative that complements the poetic verses.
Minamoto no Tsunenobu, a distinguished poet and courtier of the Heian period, is one of the featured poets in the "Hyakunin Isshu." His poem, included in the anthology, reflects the refined aesthetics and emotional depth characteristic of Heian poetry. Hokusai's depiction of Tsunenobu captures the essence of the poet's work, blending traditional Japanese artistic techniques with Hokusai's unique style.
The series "Hyakunin Isshu Ubaga Etoki" is not only a testament to Hokusai's artistic prowess but also serves as an educational tool, offering insights into the cultural and literary heritage of Japan. Each print in the series is accompanied by explanatory notes, often attributed to a fictional nurse, who elucidates the meaning and context of the poems for the viewer. This approach makes the series accessible to a broader audience, bridging the gap between classical literature and visual art.
Hokusai's "Hyakunin Isshu Ubaga Etoki" remains a significant work in the study of Japanese art and literature, illustrating the enduring legacy of the "Hyakunin Isshu" and the timeless appeal of Hokusai's artistry.
