EDITORS COMMENTS
Kasumigaseki, from the series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (Meisho Edo hyakkei)", 1857. Creator: Ando Hiroshige". This print by Ando Hiroshige takes us back to 19th century Japan, during the vibrant Edo period. Titled "Kasumigaseki" it is part of his renowned series showcasing one hundred famous views of Edo. The artwork beautifully captures a serene street scene in Kasumigaseki, with its colorful buildings and lush greenery. The composition showcases Hiroshige's mastery of ukiyo-e woodblock printing technique, as he skillfully depicts the intricate details of each element within the scene. The sky above is filled with kites soaring high against a backdrop of sea and distant mountains. In this bustling cityscape, we see men and women going about their daily lives - some strolling leisurely while others fly kites or engage in conversation under the shade of trees. The print not only offers a glimpse into the urban landscape but also provides insight into Japanese culture during that time. Hiroshige's artistry transports us to another era, where nature seamlessly blends with human activity in perfect harmony. This particular piece exemplifies his ability to capture both the beauty and tranquility found within everyday scenes. Displayed at an art gallery or institute like the Art Institute Chicago, this print serves as a testament to Hiroshige's enduring legacy as one of Japan's most celebrated artists. It reminds us why his works continue to captivate audiences worldwide centuries later.
