Niño atando una cinta al cabello de una joven

ca. 1766
Not on view
En esta cautivadora escena, una jovencita es arrullada por el sonido del agua hirviendo en un caldero de té, colocado en un fogón portátil del tipo utilizado durante el verano. Parte de las Ocho Escenas de Salón (Zashiki hakkei) de Harunobu, esta imagen hace jocosa alusión a Lluvia nocturna, una de las Ocho Vistas de los Ríos Xiao y Xiang en China, tema clásico de la pintura china y japonesa. Aquí, el espíritu veraniego de ese paisaje se traslada al interior de una casa de placer de Edo (Tokio). La obra de Harunobu se distingue por la sutileza de las tonalidades, que el pintor conseguía mezclando pigmentos en vez de superponer dos colores puros durante el proceso xilográfico.
