EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Utagawa Hiroshige III transports us back to the enchanting front garden of the Tsukiji Hotel in the Eastern Capital during the late 19th century. The triptych of polychrome woodblock prints showcases a harmonious blend of colors and intricate details, capturing the essence of Japan's Edo period. In this scene, we witness a bustling coastal landscape where European influence intertwines with traditional Japanese culture. Sailing ships from Europe dot the sea, symbolizing an era of increased international trade and cultural exchange. Westerners can be seen strolling through the gardens, admiring their beauty and immersing themselves in this foreign land. Hiroshige III masterfully depicts every element with ink and color on paper, bringing life to each stroke. The meticulously designed garden exudes tranquility as people wander amidst vibrant flora and carefully crafted pathways. This fusion between nature and man-made structures reflects Japan's deep appreciation for harmony within its landscapes. As we gaze upon this artwork housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are transported to another time - a time when Yokohama was emerging as an important port city connecting East and West. Through Hiroshige III's skillful craftsmanship, we are reminded not only of Japan's rich artistic heritage but also its pivotal role in global history. This print serves as a testament to Utagawa Hiroshige III's mastery in ukiyo-e woodblock printing technique while offering us a glimpse into a moment frozen in time – forever preserved for generations to appreciate its beauty.
