EDITORS COMMENTS
Evening Shower at the Bank of Tadasu River (Tadasugawara no yudachi) is a captivating color woodblock print from the series "Famous Places in Kyoto (Kyoto meisho no uchi)" created by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige in approximately 1834. This exquisite work of art showcases the picturesque scene of a footbridge crossing the Tadasu River during an evening shower. The bridge, adorned with intricate details, connects the banks of the river, where people seek shelter from the rain. The serene landscape is further enhanced by the peaceful coexistence of men and women, each engrossed in their own thoughts, as they navigate the estuary's mouth. The print exemplifies Hiroshige's mastery over color and composition, with the grey sky contrasting beautifully against the vibrant greens of the surrounding foliage. The artist's ability to capture the essence of the setting, from the gentle rain to the tranquil atmosphere, is truly remarkable. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of a man standing at the riverbank, seemingly lost in thought, as he watches the rain-soaked landscape unfold before him. This print is a testament to the artistic school of the Edo period (1603-1868), which emphasized the beauty of nature and the passing of the seasons. The Oban-sized print, measuring approximately 37.5 x 26.5 cm, is a treasure of Asian art and a must-see for any art enthusiast or collector. The print is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate viewers with its stunning depiction of a simple yet profound moment in time.
