EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Tango Province: Amanohashidate (Tango, Amanohashidate)" from the series "Famous Places in the Sixty-odd Provinces (Rokujuyoshu meisho zue)" dated 1853, presents a breathtaking view of Amanohashidate in Tango Province, Japan. This iconic geographical feature, located in the northern part of Kyoto Prefecture in the Kansai region, is renowned for its stunning natural beauty. The print showcases a panoramic perspective of Miyazu Bay, with its crystal-clear waters reflecting the vibrant colors of the setting sun. In the foreground, palm trees line the coast, their fronds casting long shadows on the sandy shore. Boats, including a sailboat, dot the bay, adding a sense of activity to the serene landscape. In the background, the distinctive silhouette of Amanohashidate, or the "Bridge to Heaven," can be seen. This narrow, curved sandbar, stretching about 3.6 kilometers, is believed to resemble the bridge to the heavens in Shinto mythology. The bridge is surrounded by the azure waters of the bay, creating a striking contrast between the land and the sea. This masterpiece by Hiroshige, a prominent figure in the Edo Period's artistic school, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan. The intricate details, vibrant colors, and meticulous attention to perspective are characteristic of Hiroshige's work. The print is a visual feast for the eyes, inviting viewers to explore the natural wonders of Japan during the 19th century.
