EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's Eitai Bridge, Nakasu, and Mitsumata, is a captivating section of a larger print from his renowned series "Cutouts of Famous Places in Edo" (Harimaze Koto meisho), created in 1852. This beautiful work of art showcases the picturesque scene of Eitai Bridge in Eitai City, Tokyo, Japan, during the Edo period. The bridge, with its graceful arches, spans the tranquil waters of the Dotonbori River, connecting the Nakasu and Mitsumata districts. Boats sail peacefully beneath the bridge, their sails billowing in the gentle breeze. The lush greenery of the surrounding landscape, with its vibrant plants and trees, adds a sense of serenity to the scene. The intricate details of the boats, bridge, and foliage are expertly rendered in color woodblock printing, a traditional Japanese artistic technique. The print is further adorned with elegant calligraphy in the cartouche, adding an air of refinement and sophistication. The rich, earthy tones of the print, including the grey of the bridge and the brown of the boats, contrast beautifully with the vibrant greens of the foliage. This stunning work of art, a testament to the artistic prowess of Ando Hiroshige, offers a glimpse into the beauty and heritage of Japan during the 19th century. The uncut sheet, bearing the signature of the artist as "Hiroshige Ichiyusai," is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or art history.
