EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Kinryuzan Temple at Asakusa (Asakusa Kinryuzan)" from the series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (Meisho Edo hyakkei)" dated 1856, offers a breathtaking glimpse into the past of Edo period Japan. The image showcases the iconic Kinryuzan Temple at Asakusa, a significant Buddhist temple located in Tokyo. The temple is depicted against a backdrop of vibrant autumn foliage, with the eaves of the temple's main hall illuminated by lanterns, casting long shadows on the ground. The temple's red gate and the intricate design of its roof are beautifully contrasted against the black colour of the surrounding trees and the cool, grey sky. The print also features a crowd of people, both men and women, dressed in traditional attire, milling about in the foreground, adding a sense of liveliness and activity to the scene. The meticulous attention to detail in the calligraphy, the perspective, and the placement of plants and trees, are all hallmarks of Hiroshige's artistic mastery. This stunning work of art is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the beauty of its natural landscapes.
