EDITORS COMMENTS
Seki: Junction of the Pilgrim's Road to Ise Shrine," also known as "Seki, Sangudo oiwake," is a captivating color woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige in 1855. This masterpiece is part of the series "Famous Sights of the Fifty-three Stations" (Gojusan tsugi meisho zue), also known as the Vertical Tokaido. The print depicts a scene from Ise Mie Prefecture in Japan, where the pilgrim's road to Ise Shrine intersects. The composition is dominated by a misty mountain range, with the rooftops of buildings and the pilgrims' oban (rest stops) visible in the foreground. The pilgrims, dressed in traditional attire, are shown making their way through the landscape, adding a sense of movement and dynamism to the scene. The cartouche at the bottom of the print bears the title "Seki" and the artist's name, "Hiroshige," written in both his given name, "Ichiyusai," and his artistic name, "Hiroshige." The print is characterized by its vibrant colors and intricate details, showcasing Hiroshige's mastery of the woodblock printing technique. The scene is set against a backdrop of nature, with plants and trees adding texture and depth to the composition. The use of blue tones in the misty mountains and the rooftops creates a sense of depth and distance, while the warm colors of the buildings and the pilgrims' clothing add a sense of warmth and vitality. This print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan during the Edo period and continues to be celebrated for its beauty and historical significance. It is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it can be appreciated by art lovers and scholars alike.
