EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating woodblock print, "New Year's Eve Foxfires at the Changing Tree" by Hiroshige, transports viewers to a mystical world filled with enchantment and wonder. The artwork depicts a serene night scene in Oji, where stars twinkle brightly in the sky and foxes gather around a majestic tree. As one gazes upon this masterpiece, they are immediately drawn to the glossy material that illuminates the heavens above. It creates an ethereal atmosphere that adds to the sense of magic and mystery within the image. The changing colors of the tree's leaves symbolize transition and renewal as another year comes to an end. Intricate details bring life to every element captured in this print - from wisps of smoke rising from bonfires below to distant mountains silhouetted against the night sky. The presence of foxes evokes folklore and mythology, hinting at their role as spiritual messengers or guardians of nature. Hiroshige's skillful craftsmanship is evident through his precise brushwork and careful composition. Each stroke contributes to a harmonious balance between nature and humanity, reminding us of our connection with both worlds. This extraordinary artwork is part of Hiroshige's renowned series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" which showcases his mastery in capturing different aspects of daily life in Japan during the Edo period. Bristol Museum and Art Gallery proudly houses this exquisite piece, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in its timeless beauty.
