English: Accession Number: Display Artist: Katsushika Hokusai Display Title: Poem by Harumichi no Tsuraki Translation(s): Harumichi no Tsuraki Series Title: One-hundred Poems as Explained by the Nurse Suite Name: Hyakunin isshu uba ga etoki Creation Date: 1835 Medium: Woodblock Height: 9 7/8 in. Width: 14 3/8 in. Display Dimensions: 9 7/8 in. x 14 3/8 in. ( cm x cm) Publisher: Iseya Sanjiro Credit Line: Bequest of Mrs. Cora Timken Burnett Label Copy: 'The artist of this print revisits the theme of carpenters making boards from a huge block of lumber, recalling the dramatic composition of his famous Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji and scenes in his pattern books. The poem he illustrates is by a tenth-century provincial governor who wrote: In a mountain stream,Built by the busy windIs a bamboo barrier,Yet it is only of maple leavesPowerless to flow takes evident joy in depicting the life and work of peasants. Besides the men cutting the boards, one sharpens a blade; a fisherman drags in a net, and a woman crosses a plank bridge with a child who drags a pet turtle on a leash.' Label Copy (Spanish): 'El artista de esta impresin vuelve a visitar el tema de los carpinteros que hacen tablas de un gran bloque de madera, recordando la composicin dramtica de sus famosas Treinta y seis vistas del monte Fuji y escenas en sus libros de diseos. El poema que ilustra es por un gobernador provincial del siglo X que escribi:En un arroyo de montaa,Construida por el viento atareadoEst la valla de bamb,Pero es de hojas de arceQue no pueden evidente que a Hokusai le alegra representar la vida y el trabajo de los campesinos. Adems de los hombres cortando las tablas, uno afila un cuchillo; un pescador jala una red y una mujer cruza un puente con un nio que arrastra a una tortuga con una correa.'
