Painting Description
"Three girls paddling in a river, from the Fashionable Six Jewelled Rivers, Yamashiro Province, pub. 1790, by Kitagawa Utamaro" is a notable work of Japanese ukiyo-e art from the late 18th century. Kitagawa Utamaro (c. 1753–1806) is one of the most renowned artists of the ukiyo-e genre, which flourished during the Edo period (1603–1868). Ukiyo-e, meaning "pictures of the floating world," typically depicted scenes of beauty, nature, and urban life, often focusing on courtesans, kabuki actors, and landscapes.
This particular piece is part of a series titled "Fashionable Six Jewelled Rivers" (Fūryū Mu Tamagawa), which showcases various scenic rivers in Japan, each associated with a different poetic or historical significance. The "Jewelled Rivers" series is celebrated for its elegant portrayal of women in natural settings, reflecting both the beauty of the landscape and the grace of the female form.
In "Three girls paddling in a river," Utamaro captures a serene moment of leisure, with three young women engaging in the simple, yet joyful activity of paddling in a river. The composition is marked by its delicate lines, intricate patterns, and the subtle use of color, which are characteristic of Utamaro's style. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the flowing garments of the women, the gentle ripples of the water, and the lush surrounding foliage.
Utamaro's work is distinguished by his ability to convey the elegance and poise of his subjects, often highlighting the beauty and refinement of women in everyday activities. This piece, like many of his works, offers a glimpse into the leisurely pursuits of the Edo period, providing a window into the cultural and social life of the time.
The publication date of 1790 places this work in the prime of Utamaro's career, a period during which he produced some of his most acclaimed and influential pieces. His contributions to ukiyo-e have left a lasting legacy, influencing both Japanese art and Western artists who later discovered and admired his work. "Three girls paddling in a river" remains a testament to Utamaro's skill in capturing the ephemeral beauty of the floating world.
