EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "The Toi Jewel River in Settsu Province (Settsu Toi) and the Koya Jewel River in Kii Province (Kii Koya no Tamagawa)," is a breathtaking representation of two beautiful rivers in Japan during the fall season of the 19th century. The print is part of Hiroshige's artistic series, "Six Jewel Rivers in Various Provinces (Shokoku Mu Tamagawa)." The scene unfolds on the left side of the print, with the Toi River in Hyogo Prefecture on Honshu Island, Japan. The river's calm waters reflect the vibrant autumn foliage, creating a stunning contrast of colors. A group of people, including a female figure in a traditional posture, are seen kneeling by the riverbank, taking in the beauty of the moment. On the right side of the print, the Koya Jewel River in Kii Province is depicted. The river's estuary is highlighted by the full moon, casting a gentle glow on the water's surface. A cataract can be seen in the distance, adding a sense of power and energy to the scene. The print's intricate details are showcased in the cartouche, which includes the title, artist's name, and location information. The use of color, particularly the green hue of the rivers and the autumn foliage, adds depth and dimension to the print. This woodblock print is a testament to Hiroshige's mastery of the medium and his ability to capture the natural beauty of Japan during the Edo period. It is a valuable piece of Asian art heritage and continues to inspire artists and art lovers around the world.
