EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Kisarazu in Kazusa Province (Kazusa Kisarazu)" from the series "Wrestling Matches between Mountains and Seas (Sankai mitate zumo)" dates back to the 19th century, specifically 1858. This stunning work of art, created by the renowned Japanese artist, showcases the picturesque coastal town of Kisarazu located in Kazusa Province, Chiba, Japan. The print depicts a vibrant scene of the town, with the serene sea meeting the rugged coastline. Fishing boats, filled with men, dot the water, casting their nets and hauling in their catch. The men on the boats are engaged in a friendly wrestling match, adding an element of excitement to the otherwise tranquil setting. The background is filled with the lush greenery of the mountains, providing a beautiful contrast to the blue waters of the sea. The boats and the men are dwarfed by the vastness of the landscape, highlighting the insignificance of human existence in the face of nature's grandeur. This print is a testament to the artistic school of Ukiyo-e, which flourished during the Edo and Tokugawa periods in Japan. The intricate details, bold colors, and masterful use of perspective make this a must-see for any art enthusiast or history buff. The print, with its oban size and rich heritage, is a treasure of Asian art and a window into Japan's past.
