EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour woodblock print titled "Seto River (Setogawa)" by Hiroshige, Ando or Utagawa takes us on an adventurous journey along the Tōkaidō Road. The artwork, housed in Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, showcases a scene filled with both comedy and comic elements. In this picturesque depiction, we witness two men hilariously tumbling into the river Setogawa. Their unexpected plunge adds a touch of adventure to their otherwise ordinary walk along the famous road. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he captures the flowing water of the river and surrounding willow trees with precision. Signed "Hiroshige ga" and published by Tsutaya Juzaburo (Koshodo), this print exemplifies Hiroshige's mastery in creating visually stunning compositions that evoke emotions within viewers. It transports us back to a time when travel was arduous yet filled with moments of unexpected joy. Bristol Museums, Galleries & Archives have preserved this remarkable piece from Japanese history for all to appreciate. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but be captivated by its charm and timeless appeal. This artwork serves as a reminder that even amidst life's challenges, there is always room for laughter and adventure - just like these two men who found themselves taking an unplanned dip in Setogawa River.
