EDITORS COMMENTS
Aerial View of Hara, Suruga Province" is a stunning color woodblock print created by Utagawa Hiroshige II in 1860 as part of his series "One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces." This work of art showcases a bird's-eye view of the picturesque town of Hara, located in the Suruga Province of Japan during the Edo period. The print depicts a serene landscape with the town nestled at the foot of Mount Fuji, the iconic Japanese mountain range that has long been a source of inspiration for artists. The mountain, known as Fousi Yama or Fujiyama, dominates the background, its snow-capped peak reaching for the heavens. The town below is bustling with activity, with people and carts moving along the winding path that leads to the Koshibei shrine. The vibrant green color of the landscape is accentuated by the use of color woodblock printing, a traditional Japanese artistic technique. The print also features a cartouche in the bottom left corner, which includes the title "Suruga haru no fukei" and the names of the series and artist, "One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces" and "Ni Daime Utagawa Hiroshige." This print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan during the 19th century and provides a glimpse into the daily life and geography of the time. The intricate details and beautiful use of color make it a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art or Japanese culture. This work of art is now part of the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The print is a reminder of the enduring beauty and significance of Japanese art and the natural wonders of Japan's diverse landscapes.
