EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating print, titled "The Suruga District in the Eastern Capital (Toto Suruga-cho)" from the renowned series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fuji sanjurokkei)" dated 1858, offers a vivid glimpse into the Edo Period (1603-1868) of Japan. This stunning oban-size color woodblock print showcases the Suruga Bay area in present-day Shizuoka Prefecture, with Mount Fuji (Fuji-san) standing majestically in the background. The scene is bustling with activity as people go about their daily lives. A group of men, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, gather at a street corner, engaged in animated conversation. A musician, wearing a blue kimono, plays a musical instrument, adding to the lively atmosphere. The intricate details of their clothing, from the patterns and colors to the folds and textures, are beautifully rendered, providing a glimpse into the fashion trends of the time. The print also highlights the geographical features of the region, with the Suruga Bay (Suruga-wan) and the mountains in the foreground. The serene waters reflect the clear blue sky, while the mountains, including Mount Fuji, are depicted with great symbolic significance. The print is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic skill and his ability to capture the essence of a place and time. This masterpiece is a valuable addition to any art collection, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo Period. It is a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art, particularly those with a focus on Japanese art or the works of Ando Hiroshige.
