Painting Description
Teishin-ko, From The Series Hyakunin Isshu Uba Ga Etoki (The Hundred Poems as Told by the Nurse) is a celebrated woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai. This artwork is part of a larger series created by Hokusai, who is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in the history of Japanese art. The series, Hyakunin Isshu Uba Ga Etoki, translates to "The Hundred Poems as Told by the Nurse," and it visually interprets the classic anthology of one hundred poems by one hundred poets, known as the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu.
Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849) was a master of the ukiyo-e genre, which flourished during the Edo period (1603-1868). Ukiyo-e, meaning "pictures of the floating world," typically depicted scenes from everyday life, landscapes, and theatrical performances. Hokusai's work in this genre has left an indelible mark on both Japanese and Western art, with his most famous piece being "The Great Wave off Kanagawa."
Teishin-ko, the subject of this particular print, refers to a historical figure, Fujiwara no Teika (1162-1241), who was a prominent poet, critic, and anthologist in the late Heian and early Kamakura periods. Teika is often credited with compiling the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu, making his inclusion in Hokusai's series particularly significant. The print captures the essence of Teika's poetic contributions and his esteemed place in Japanese literary history.
Hokusai's interpretation of Teishin-ko is characterized by his meticulous attention to detail, dynamic composition, and the use of vibrant colors. The print not only pays homage to the literary genius of Teika but also showcases Hokusai's exceptional skill in blending narrative and visual art. Through this series, Hokusai sought to bring the timeless beauty and emotional depth of classical Japanese poetry to a broader audience, ensuring that the cultural heritage of the Hyakunin Isshu would be appreciated by future generations.
