EDITORS COMMENTS
Urami Waterfall, 1896" is a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Kobayashi Kiyochika, part of his "Sketches of Famous Views of Japan" series. This masterpiece, created during the Meiji Era of the late 19th century, showcases the breathtaking Urami Waterfall located in the Nikko Tochigi Kanto region of Japan. The print depicts the powerful and dramatic Urami Waterfall cascading down a cliffside, its white foamy waters contrasting against the lush green foliage and rocky terrain. The force of the falling water is evident in the dynamic swirls and curves, while the surrounding cliffs display the effects of erosion over time. The print also features background people, adding a sense of scale and context to the scene. The vibrant colors and intricate details showcase the skillful use of the woodblock printing technique, a traditional Japanese art form. During the Meiji Period, Japan underwent significant modernization and tourism began to flourish. This series of woodblock prints by Kobayashi Kiyochika captured the beauty and allure of Japan's natural phenomena, inspiring both domestic and foreign travelers to explore the country's scenic wonders. Today, this woodblock print is part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), serving as a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese heritage art and the natural beauty of Urami Waterfall.
