EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating print, "Maisaka" from the renowned series "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido" (Gojusan tsugi), created in 1852, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period. This exquisite chuban (medium-sized) color woodblock print, also known as the "Figure Tokaido," depicts a tranquil scene along the Tokaido Road, the main highway connecting Edo (present-day Tokyo) and Kyoto. The image captures the picturesque town of Maisaka in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, with its iconic blue geographical feature, the Maisaka Pond, reflecting the serene beauty of the landscape. Boats filled with passengers are docked at the riverside, adding to the bustling activity of the scene. The women in the print are dressed in elegant kimonos, their clothing adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, showcasing the artistic school of the time. Hiroshige's masterful use of color and composition creates a vivid and inviting portrait of life along the Tokaido Road during the 19th century. The print is a testament to the artistic legacy of Ando Hiroshige, a renowned figure in the world of ukiyo-e (floating world) art, and a must-see for any art enthusiast or student of Asian art and culture.
