EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Oharame, Village girl from Ohara" by Katsushika Hokusai showcases the artist's incredible talent and attention to detail. Created around 1799, this woodcut print measures 18.7 x 10.5 cm and features a head-and-shoulders portrait of a woman carrying a bundle of sticks on her head. The woman in the image is depicted with grace and strength as she effortlessly balances the bundle on top of her head. Her serene expression hints at the resilience and determination that characterizes village life in Ohara. The vibrant colors used in this woodcut add depth and vibrancy to the scene, bringing it to life. What makes this artwork truly unique is the small cut-out figure in the shape of a man that appears to bind the bundle together. This clever addition adds an element of whimsy and intrigue to an otherwise straightforward portrait. Katsushika Hokusai was renowned for his mastery of ukiyo-e, a genre of Japanese art that flourished during the Edo period. His ability to capture everyday scenes with such precision made him one of Japan's most celebrated artists. In Quint Lox's expertly curated collection, this particular piece stands out as both visually stunning and culturally significant. It serves as a testament to Hokusai's skillful craftsmanship while offering viewers a glimpse into rural life in Ohara during the late 18th century
