EDITORS COMMENTS
Hakone: Night Procession in the Mountains" (Hakone, sanchu yagyo no zu), no. 11, is a stunning color woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige in 1855. This masterpiece is part of the series "Famous Sites of the Fifty-three Stations (Gojusan tsugi meisho zue)" or the Vertical Tokaido, which showcases the scenic beauty of Japan during the Edo period. The print depicts a night scene in Hakone, a town located in Kanagawa prefecture, Kanto region, Japan. The mountainside is illuminated by the moonlight, casting a soft, ethereal glow on the landscape. In the foreground, a group of men and horses are making their way along the winding mountain road, their figures silhouetted against the brightly lit cartouche. The background is filled with the dark, indistinct shapes of mountains, their peaks barely visible in the night. The estuary at the base of the mountains is a deep, inky blue, contrasting with the gradient of grey and blue in the sky. The print is characterized by its intricate details, from the individual strands of hair on the horse's mane to the delicate folds of the men's robes. Ando Hiroshige's mastery of color and composition is evident in this print, which captures the beauty and mystery of the Japanese countryside at night. The use of color woodblock printing techniques adds depth and texture to the image, making it a true work of art. This print is a testament to the artistic school of the time, which valued the representation of nature and the human experience. It is a valuable heritage piece, showcasing the rich artistic traditions of Asia and the world.
