EDITORS COMMENTS
Raigo Valley at Oyama in Sagami Province," a captivating woodblock print from Ando Hiroshige's renowned series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji," dates back to the 19th century, specifically 1852. This exquisite piece showcases the breathtaking beauty of Raigo Valley located at the foot of Mount Oyama in Sagami Province, Japan. The print, characterized by its intricate details and vibrant colors, captures the essence of the Edo Period (1603-1868) and the Tokugawa Shogunate era. The landscape is dominated by the majestic cliffs and the serene Raigo Valley, which is adorned with lush greenery and a tranquil river. The valley is nestled between the towering mountains, creating a picturesque scene of nature's grandeur. The print features a grey cartouche with calligraphy by Hiroshige I, also known as Ando Hiroshige or Utagawa Hiroshige. The artist masterfully uses color woodblock printing techniques to bring the scene to life, with the green valley contrasting beautifully against the grey mountains and the grey sky. The print also showcases the artist's skillful use of weather elements, with the ominous clouds adding an element of drama to the otherwise serene landscape. This stunning piece of art is a testament to the artistic school of Ukiyo-e, which flourished during the Edo Period and focused on the depiction of the natural world and everyday life. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this heritage art piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and intricacy of Japanese art from the 19th century.
