EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour woodblock print, titled "A River Boat" transports us to the serene waterways of Japan. Created by Shibata Zeshin in the 19th century, this artwork measures 25.1x33 cm and is housed in the prestigious Arthur M. Sackler Gallery at the Smithsonian Institution in the USA.

The meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colours bring life to every element of this composition. A lone man stands on board, his figure exuding tranquility as he navigates the vessel with expertise. Surrounded by lush greenery and framed by towering mountains in the distance, this image captures both natural beauty and human ingenuity harmoniously coexisting along Japan's rivers.
