EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's Hakone, section of sheet no. 3 from the series "Cutouts of the Fifty-three Stations" (Gojusan tsugi harimaze), created in 1852, is a stunning color woodblock print that showcases the breathtaking beauty of Hakone, a scenic region located in the Kanto region of Japan, in Kanagawa prefecture. The print captures the rugged cliffs and cliff face of the area, with the cliffs seemingly jutting out from the paper, creating a three-dimensional effect. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the print transport the viewer to the geographical feature during the Edo period (1603-1868). The image depicts a rooftop scene, with the rooftops of buildings blending seamlessly into the landscape, creating a harmonious balance between man-made structures and natural beauty. The roofs, adorned with traditional Japanese tiles, add texture and depth to the print, while the roof of a small teahouse can be seen nestled among the cliffs. Hiroshige's masterful use of color and composition is evident in this section of the "Cutouts of the Fifty-three Stations" series. The print is a testament to the artistic school of Ukiyo-e, which focused on the depiction of the transient world, and the beauty of everyday life in Japan during the Tokugawa period. The print is now part of the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago and is a cherished piece of Asian heritage art.
