EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Awa Province: Inner Bay at Kominato" (Awa, Kominato uchiura), is a breathtaking representation of the Inner Bay at Kominato in the Awa Province of Japan, during the Edo period in the 19th century. This stunning work of art is part of Hiroshige's renowned series, "Famous Places in the Sixty-odd Provinces" (Rokujuyoshu meisho zue), created in 1853. The print showcases a serene coastal landscape, with a headland jutting out into the bay, framing the scene. The calm, blue waters of the bay are dotted with boats of various sizes, including sailboats, peacefully sailing along the coastline. The vibrant green color of the land contrasts beautifully with the blue water, creating a harmonious balance. The cartouche at the top of the print includes the title, "Awa Province: Inner Bay at Kominato," and the artist's name, "Hiroshige I." Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige or Ando Utagawa Hiroshige, was a renowned Japanese artist of the Edo period, known for his mastery of the color woodblock print technique. His works, including this one, are cherished for their exquisite attention to detail and their ability to capture the beauty and essence of the natural world. This print is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan and the Edo period, and is a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for Asian art or landscape painting. It is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate viewers with its timeless beauty.
