EDITORS COMMENTS
Daijin Shrine at Funabashi, Shimosa Province (Shimosa Funabashi Daijingu)," a captivating color woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige II from the series "One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces (Shokoku meisho hyakkei)" created in 1860, showcases the serene and picturesque entrance to the Daijin Shrine located in Funabashi, Chiba, Japan. The print depicts a group of men, dressed in traditional clothing, arriving at the shrine through a colorful gateway adorned with intricate designs. The green color dominating the scene, from the lush vegetation to the vibrant foliage on the shrine buildings, creates a sense of tranquility and harmony. The print is a testament to the artistic school of Utagawa Hiroshige II, who was part of the Kisai Rissho and Koshibei artistic lineages. Hiroshige II's masterful use of ink and color brings the scenery to life, capturing the essence of the Edo period in Japan. The cartouche at the bottom right of the print bears the signature of Morita Chimpei, the publisher, and the seal of Ryusho, the printer. The Daijin Shrine, a significant religious site, is nestled amidst the natural beauty of the province, with plants and trees forming a beautiful contrast against the shrine buildings. This stunning work of art is a must-see for anyone interested in the arts of Asia, particularly those focusing on the 19th century. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this magnificent piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the artistic brilliance of Utagawa Hiroshige II and the rich cultural heritage of Japan.
