EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's 'Ejiri, Fuchu, Mariko, and Okabe, no. 6 from the series Pictures of the Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido' is a stunning color woodblock print from the 19th century. This masterpiece, created by the renowned artist Ando Hiroshige (1797-1858), showcases the beauty and intricacy of Edo period Japanese fashion. The scene depicts travelers at the Ejiri station in Shizuoka, Japan, as they rest and prepare for their journey. The central figures are three women, Mariko, Fuchu, and Okabe, who are dressed in elegant kimonos adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors. Mariko, the youngest, wears a bright red kimono with gold accents, while Fuchu and Okabe are dressed in more subdued gray and green tones. The women sit on a mat, surrounded by various items such as a bowl, a cartouche, and calligraphy tools, suggesting that they are preparing for a tea ceremony. The print also features the station master, Ejiri, who is shown in the background, wearing a traditional Edo period hat and robe. The landscape in the background is lush and green, with rolling hills and a serene harbor visible in the distance. The print is titled 'Oban Harimaze' and is part of the 'Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido' series, which depicts the various stations along the Tokaido Road, the main highway connecting Tokyo and Kyoto during the Edo period. This beautiful work of art is a testament to the artistic school of the time and showcases the attention to detail and appreciation for the arts, including calligraphy, clothing, and the natural world. The use of color and the intricate details in the print make it a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery.
