View of Totsuka - A Glimpse into the Tranquil Countryside
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This colour woodblock print, titled "View of Totsuka" offers a serene and picturesque scene from ancient Japan. Created by Kunisada, Utagawa (Toyokuni III), this artwork showcases the beauty of the T?kaid? Road, specifically capturing the charm of Totsuka. The print depicts a woman standing amidst a band of beige clouds, elegantly dressed in an ikat-like jacket over a vibrant green kimono. In her right hand rests a tea-kettle, symbolizing hospitality and tranquility. On her left side, another woman is seen leaving a traditional tea house, adding to the sense of movement within this idyllic setting. In the background lies a majestic grey mountain that stretches beyond lush fields. This juxtaposition between nature's grandeur and human presence creates an atmosphere of harmony and balance. As part of the larger series "Fifty-three Stations of the T?kaid? Road" this print pays homage to Hiroshige's original design for the First Tokaido. The publisher Moriya Jihei (Kinshind?) ensured its meticulous execution with Kunisada's signature proudly displayed at its corner. With its delicate details and exquisite craftsmanship, this artwork transports viewers back in time to experience life along one of Japan's most iconic roads. It captures not only physical elements such as bridges and horses but also evokes emotions associated with travel
