EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Act XI First Episode: Ronin Crossing a Bridge at Night on the Way to Moronao's Castle," dates back to the 1830s, during the Edo period of Japan. This iconic image is taken from the series "The Storehouse of Loyal Retainers," also known as "Kanadehon Chushingura." The print depicts a group of ronin, or masterless samurai, advancing through the night, crossing a bridge on their way to avenge the death of their lord, Lord Asano. The scene is set against the backdrop of a snowy landscape, with the silhouettes of boats and boats on the riverbank adding to the sense of isolation and determination. The forty-seven ronin, bound by the code of loyalty and honor, embarked on a dangerous journey to seek revenge against Lord Kira, who had dishonored their lord. This episode marks the beginning of their quest, as they leave their former lives behind and set out into the unknown. Ando Hiroshige masterfully captures the mood of the scene, using color and composition to convey the sense of anticipation and resolve. The use of traditional Japanese techniques, such as color woodblock printing, adds to the authenticity and beauty of the artwork. This print is a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese heritage art and literature, with "Chushingura" being one of the most famous stories in Japanese history. It is now housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences from around the world.
