Tsukudajima Hatsu Hototogisu, probably 1830
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating polychrome woodblock print created by Ando Hiroshige during the Edo period in Japan. The artwork showcases Hiroshige's mastery of ukiyo-e, a traditional Japanese art form that flourished during the 17th to 19th centuries. In this mesmerizing scene, we are transported to Tsukudajima, a small island located in Tokyo Bay. A fleet of boats and cargo ships gracefully navigate the tranquil waters of the harbor under a crescent moonlit sky. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings life to every element - from the delicate lunar glow illuminating the landscape to the intricate patterns adorning each vessel. Hiroshige's composition skillfully captures both natural beauty and human activity. The print not only celebrates Japan's rich maritime heritage but also offers insights into its geographical features and transportation systems during that era. As we admire this work, it becomes apparent how Hiroshige seamlessly merged art with science; his portrayal of celestial bodies hints at an underlying fascination with astronomy and our solar system. Today, "Tsukudajima Hatsu Hototogisu" resides within the prestigious collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met). Its vibrant colors and impeccable craftsmanship continue to captivate viewers worldwide, serving as a testament to Hiroshige's enduring legacy as one of Japan's most celebrated artists.
