EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "The Ide Jewel River in Yamashiro Province (Yamashiro Ide)" from the series "Six Jewel Rivers in the Various Provinces (Shokoku Mu Tamagawa)" dates back to the 19th century, specifically 1857. This masterpiece, created by the renowned artist Hiroshige I, also known as Ando Hiroshige and Utagawa Hiroshige, showcases the beauty and serenity of the Ide Jewel River in the Kinai region of Japan, specifically in the province of Yamashiro. The print depicts a tranquil scene of the river estuary, where men and boys are seen fording the river on horseback or horse-drawn carts. The horses, with their alert and curious expressions, add a lively element to the otherwise peaceful landscape. The Ide Jewel River is known for its crystal-clear waters, and the artist masterfully captures the gentle flow of the water as it meets the land. The print is adorned with intricate calligraphy in the cartouche, adding an elegant touch to the piece. The use of blue and green colors adds depth and dimension to the print, making it a true work of art. The Ide Jewel River was a significant geographical feature during the Edo period, and this print serves as a testament to the importance of the natural world in Japanese art and culture. This stunning piece is now part of the collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences from around the world. The Ide Jewel River print is a must-see for anyone interested in the artistic schools of Asia, and a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Japan during the 19th century.
