Netting Wild Geese on the Hill at Okoshi, Iyo Province
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning color woodblock print created by Utagawa Hiroshige II in 1861 as part of his renowned series "One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces." This work of art showcases the picturesque landscape of Okoshi in Iyo Province, Ehime, Japan, during the Edo period. The print depicts a hillside dotted with men in traditional clothing, each focused intently on netting geese that have gathered in the foreground. The vibrant green hills roll out beneath a clear blue sky, with a few scattered clouds adding a touch of whimsy. The men, dressed in various shades of brown and white, are shown in various poses as they skillfully maneuver their nets, capturing the geese mid-flight. The print is adorned with a cartouche at the bottom left corner, featuring the series title "One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces," and the artist's name, "Ni Daime Utagawa Hiroshige," written in elegant calligraphy. The print also bears the seals of the publishers, Kisai Rissho and Ryusho, and the carver, Morita Chimpei. This beautiful work of art is a testament to the artistic school of Ukiyo-e, which flourished in Japan during the 18th and 19th centuries. The intricate details, vivid colors, and masterful composition make "Netting Wild Geese on the Hill at Okoshi, Iyo Province" a true treasure of Asian art. Today, this print can be found in the collections of esteemed institutions such as the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences.
