EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print, titled "Yoshiwara, 1840-42" by Hiroshige, Ando or Utagawa takes us on a journey back to 19th century Japan. Measuring at 16.5x22.5 cm, this exquisite piece is housed in The McManus museum in Dundee, UK. Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858), a renowned Japanese artist of the time, masterfully captures the essence of rural life in this stunning artwork. The print showcases a picturesque village nestled amidst breathtaking landscapes and mountains that lead our gaze towards the iconic Mount Fuji. As we delve into the scene depicted before us, we are transported to a tranquil countryside setting where country roads wind through charming towns and villages. Travelers can be seen traversing these paths as they make their way through this idyllic landscape. The attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke of Hiroshige's brush brings life to each element within the composition – from the rooftops of traditional Japanese houses to the lush greenery that surrounds them. This woodblock print not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also acts as a window into Japan's rich cultural heritage during this period. It allows us to appreciate both its natural beauty and everyday life in rural communities. Displayed with pride at Dundee Art Galleries and Museums, this timeless work continues to captivate viewers with its serene charm and impeccable craftsmanship.
