EDITORS COMMENTS
Mount Tenpo at the Mouth of the Aji River in Settsu Province" is a stunning color woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai, circa 1833/34. This exquisite work of art is part of the series "Unusual Views of Famous Bridges in Various Provinces" (Shokoku meikyo kiran), showcasing the unique beauty of Japan's geographical features. The print depicts Mount Tenpo, also known as Tempozan or Tempo Hill, located at the estuary of the Aji River in Settsu Province, now part of Hyogo Prefecture on the southern coast of Honshu, Japan's largest island. The mountain, with its distinctive pink hue, rises majestically from the hillside, framed by the winding river and the tranquil waters of the estuary. In the foreground, people can be seen walking along a path, taking in the breathtaking scenery. The cartouche at the bottom left of the print bears the title "Sesshu Ajikawaguchi Tenpozan," while the artist's name, "Hokusai," is written in the top right corner. The print is further embellished with intricate details, such as the delicate pink roses and the subtle shading that adds depth and dimension to the landscape. Hokusai, born in Edo (now Tokyo) during the Tokugawa period, is renowned for his innovative artistic style and his ability to capture the essence of Japan's natural beauty. This print is a testament to his mastery of the ukiyo-e (floating world) artistic tradition, which emphasized the transient nature of life and the importance of appreciating the beauty of the present moment. Mount Tenpo at the Mouth of the Aji River in Settsu Province is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art, offering a glimpse into Japan's rich cultural heritage and the artistic genius of one of its most celebrated artists.
