EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1834 colour woodblock print, titled "Okitsu River" transports viewers to the serene landscapes of Japan. Created by renowned artist Hiroshige Ando Utagawa, this masterpiece measures 22.7x35.1 cm and is proudly displayed at the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. The artwork showcases a picturesque scene along the Okitsu River, capturing the essence of Asian beauty and tranquility. The riverbank is rugged yet inviting, with lush greenery framing its crystal-clear waters. In this idyllic setting, we witness various modes of traditional Japanese transport. A litter gracefully carries passengers across the river as they sit comfortably inside a sedan chair. This elegant form of travel was common during that era and symbolizes luxury and prestige. Meanwhile, locals can be seen wading through the shallow parts of the river or riding on horseback along its banks. Hiroshige's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life – from the vibrant colors that depict nature's splendor to each individual figure portrayed with precision and grace. Through his artistry, he captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes emotions of serenity and wonder within those who gaze upon it. Thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Marcus' generous gift, this remarkable piece remains accessible for all visitors at the Dallas Museum of Art—an opportunity for art enthusiasts to immerse themselves in Japanese culture while appreciating one of Hiroshige's most iconic works.
