Goose and Moon
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning and enchanting woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Maruyama Okyo, created during the 1770s in the Edo period. This exquisite work of art is a prime example of the Ukiyo-e (Floating World) style, which flourished in Japan during the 18th and 19th centuries. Maruyama Okyo, born in 1733, was a master of the polychrome woodblock print technique. His innovative use of color and his ability to capture the essence of nature made him one of the most influential artists of his time. In this print, he masterfully portrays a serene and peaceful scene of a goose resting on a tranquil pond under the gentle glow of the moon. The goose, with its elegant and graceful form, is depicted in meticulous detail. Its feathers are rendered in a rich palette of colors, from the deep greens and browns of its body to the vibrant reds and oranges of its beak and eyes. The reflection of the goose and the moon in the still water adds a sense of depth and dimension to the print. The moon, a recurring motif in Japanese art, is depicted as a full, glowing orb, casting a soft and ethereal light over the scene. The delicate clouds that surround it add a sense of movement and dynamism, contrasting with the stillness of the goose and the pond. The overall effect of "Goose and Moon" is one of tranquility and harmony. Maruyama Okyo's masterful use of color and composition invites the viewer to pause and reflect on the beauty of nature, even in the midst of the bustling city life of Edo period Japan. This print is a true testament to the artistic brilliance of Maruyama Okyo and the enduring appeal of Ukiyo-e art.
