EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Yui: The Yui River (Yui, Yuigawa)," is a breathtaking work of art from the renowned series "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido Road" (also known as "Tokaido gojusan tsugi" or "Kyoka iri Tokaido"), created in the mid-19th century during the Edo period. This stunning piece showcases the picturesque scene of the Yui River, an estuary located in the present-day Shizuoka prefecture in Japan. The river is depicted as it flows gracefully around a hill, with a footbridge arching over it, providing a vital connection between the two banks. In the foreground, a porter is shown carrying a large load, adding a sense of scale and activity to the tranquil landscape. The vibrant greens of the hills and the serene blue of the river are beautifully contrasted against the white cartouche in the top right corner, featuring the title and a poem in elegant calligraphy. This masterpiece, a testament to Hiroshige's artistic skill and the rich cultural heritage of Japan, is a must-see for any art enthusiast or collector.
