“Carp Swimming up a Waterfall” (circa 1827-28) by Yashima Gakutei is a Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock print. It depicts a carp swimming upstream in a waterfall. The print is notable for its dynamic composition and its use of color. Gakutei used a variety of shades of blue and green to create a sense of movement and depth in the waterfall. The carp is shown in bright red and orange, contrasting with the cooler colors of the waterfall. The print is also significant for its symbolism. In Japanese culture, the carp is a symbol of perseverance and determination. It is said that if a carp can swim upstream and leap over the Dragon Gate, it will be transformed into a dragon. Thus, the print can be seen as a representation of the human struggle to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. Overall, Carp Swimming up a Waterfall is a beautiful and inspiring work of art. It is a testament to Gakutei's skill as a printmaker and his understanding of Japanese culture.
