EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to Japan in the late 18th century. Titled "Nocturnal Fishing Pleasure Boat" it depicts a scene of leisure and excitement on the water. In this vibrant woodcut, we see a pleasure boat filled with different women and two intrigued men. They gaze intently at an adjacent fishing boat where a man skillfully brings in a large fishing net under the cover of night. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as they engage in their nocturnal fishing adventure. The artist, Kitagawa Utamaro, renowned for his exquisite depictions of women, masterfully captures their grace and allure amidst this nighttime spectacle. The colors are rich and vivid, enhancing the sense of drama and mystery that surrounds this scene. Sports enthusiasts will appreciate the dynamic energy portrayed here, as well as the presence of animals such as fish caught in nets. It is evident that Utamaro sought to capture not only human activity but also nature's role within these nocturnal pursuits. Dating back to 1795-1800, this paper print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical artifact from Japan's Edo period. Its inclusion in the Liszt Collection showcases its significance within art history
