Spring - Soaking Rice Grains (Haru - tanehitashi no zu), No. 1 from the series The Four Seasons of Farmers (Shiki no hyakusho),
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning hand-colored woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Torii Kiyomasu in the 1730s. This exquisite work of art showcases the daily life of farmers during the spring season, a time of renewal and growth. In the image, a group of men and women are seen working together in a paddy field, soaking rice grains in preparation for planting. The scene is set against the backdrop of a serene landscape, with an estuary and rolling hills in the distance. The vibrant orange color of the rice grains contrasts beautifully with the cool, muted tones of the water and the green fields. The artist masterfully captures the essence of the season, with the farmers dressed in traditional clothing and engaged in their labor. The children play nearby, adding a touch of innocence and joy to the scene. The intricate details of the print, from the textures of the clothing to the subtle shading of the landscape, are a testament to the artistic skill of Torii Kiyomasu. This print is an important example of the Hosoban Urushi-e style, which was popular in Japan during the eighteenth century. It is also a valuable addition to the rich artistic heritage of Asia and a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional farming practices. Whether displayed in an art centre, gallery, or institute, this print is sure to captivate and inspire viewers with its intricate details, vibrant colors, and poignant depiction of rural life in Japan during the spring season.
