Painting Description
"Ferry Across the Rokugo River (central and right-hand sheets of a triptych)" is a notable woodblock print created by the esteemed Japanese ukiyo-e artist Torii Kiyonaga in 1754. Kiyonaga, a prominent figure in the Torii school, is celebrated for his masterful depictions of bijin-ga (beautiful women) and his contributions to the genre of ukiyo-e during the Edo period. This particular work exemplifies his skill in capturing the elegance and grace of everyday life in 18th-century Japan.
The triptych format, which consists of three separate but related panels, was a popular compositional technique in ukiyo-e, allowing artists to create expansive and detailed scenes. In "Ferry Across the Rokugo River," Kiyonaga employs this format to depict a serene and picturesque moment on the Rokugo River, a significant waterway in the Edo period. The central and right-hand sheets of the triptych showcase a ferryboat carrying passengers across the river, highlighting the daily activities and interactions of the time.
Kiyonaga's attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns of the passengers' clothing, the delicate rendering of the boat, and the fluidity of the water. The composition captures a sense of movement and tranquility, reflecting the harmonious relationship between humans and nature. The use of color and line work in this print demonstrates Kiyonaga's mastery of the woodblock printing technique, which was a collaborative process involving designers, carvers, and printers.
This work is not only a testament to Kiyonaga's artistic prowess but also provides valuable insight into the cultural and social dynamics of the Edo period. The depiction of the ferry crossing, a common mode of transportation at the time, offers a glimpse into the daily lives of the people and the importance of rivers in connecting communities. "Ferry Across the Rokugo River" remains an important piece in the study of ukiyo-e and continues to be admired for its beauty and historical significance.
