EDITORS COMMENTS
The Naniwaya Pine Tree at Sakai in Izumi Province," a captivating woodblock print created by Utagawa Hiroshige II in 1859, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Japan's natural landscape during the Edo period. This exquisite piece is part of the series "One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces" (Shokoku meisho hyakkei), which highlights the unique geographical features and cultural significance of various locations across Japan. The print depicts a solitary, majestic pine tree (Naniwaya no matsu) standing proudly on a hillside in Sakai, Izumi Province. The tree, with its long, blue-green needles, is bathed in the soft glow of the setting sun, casting long shadows on the surrounding terrain. The hill is dotted with small, red-roofed houses, and a group of men and children can be seen in the foreground, admiring the scenic view. The print is adorned with a cartouche that includes the title, the name of the artist (Ni Daime Utagawa Hiroshige), and the publisher's mark (Rissho or Ryusho). The print is oban trimmed, making it a large and impressive piece. The intricate details of the print, from the individual pine needles to the textures of the houses, are a testament to the skill and artistry of Utagawa Hiroshige II and the artistic school he was part of, which included Morita Chimpei and Koshibei. This woodblock print is a valuable heritage art piece that transports us to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural and artistic traditions of Japan during the 19th century. The Naniwaya Pine Tree at Sakai in Izumi Province is not just a work of art, but a window into Japan's past, showcasing the beauty of its natural landscapes and the people who lived there.
