EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating print, titled "Lake Suwa in Shinano Province" (Shinano Suwako), is a breathtaking representation of the picturesque Lake Suwa in Nagano Prefecture, Japan, during the Edo period. This stunning work of art is part of Hiroshige's renowned series, "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" (Fuji sanjurokkei), created between 1851 and 1852. The print showcases the tranquil lake nestled amidst the rugged, jagged mountains, with Mount Fuji (Fugaku) peeking in the background. The clear, green waters of the lake reflect the surrounding landscape, adding depth and dimension to the composition. Boats dot the water's surface, adding a sense of activity and movement to the otherwise serene scene. The background is populated with figures, adding a sense of scale and human connection to the landscape. The color palette is dominated by the rich, earthy greens of the mountains and foliage, contrasted with the crisp, clean lines of the boats and the vibrant blue of the lake. This masterpiece of color woodblock printing is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic skill and his ability to capture the essence of Japan's natural beauty. The print is a valuable heritage art piece, showcasing the geographical features of Shinano Province and providing a glimpse into the daily life of the people during the Edo period. The intricate details and vibrant colors make this a must-see for any art enthusiast or anyone interested in the arts of Asia.
