EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's Morning Market at Nihon Bridge, a captivating image from his "Harimaze Koto Meisho" (Cutouts of Famous Places in Edo) series, dates back to 1852. This exquisite color woodblock print showcases the bustling morning market scene at Nihonbashi, Tokyo, Japan. The iconic bridge, adorned with its distinctive red and white lanterns, spans the glistening waters of the Sumida River. Vendors display an array of fresh seafood, including fish, shellfish, and eels, attracting the attention of eager customers. The vibrant pinks and reds of the fish and the surrounding flowers, such as roses, add a pop of color to the monochromatic scene. The intricate details of the market stalls, cartouches, and calligraphy are evident in the close-up view of the print. The structure of the bridge and the market, with its wooden stalls and thatched roofs, convey the rich heritage and history of Edo period Japan. The market, teeming with activity, represents the bustling trade and commerce during this time. This uncut sheet from the Art Institute of Chicago's collection, with the section number 19391288, is a testament to the artistic brilliance of Ando Hiroshige, who masterfully captured the essence of daily life in Edo Japan through his woodblock prints.
