Stations One - Morning View of Nihonbashi, ca. 1833-34
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating polychrome woodblock print created by Ando Hiroshige in the 19th century. This exquisite artwork showcases the artist's mastery in capturing the essence of Edo Japan and its rich cultural heritage. In this scene, we are transported to a bustling morning on the iconic Nihonbashi bridge. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life a snapshot of daily life during the Edo period. Fishermen and fishmongers can be seen going about their work, carrying baskets filled with fresh seafood caught from nearby waters. As we gaze at this print, our eyes are drawn to a lone figure harnessed with yokes, symbolizing his occupation as he navigates through the crowd. The procession of people on this busy road adds depth and movement to the composition, giving us a glimpse into the dynamic nature of urban life in old Japan. Hiroshige's skillful use of ink and color on paper creates an atmosphere that transports us back in time. We can almost feel ourselves standing on that bridge, immersed in the sights and sounds of Edo cityscape. This remarkable piece is now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art where it continues to captivate visitors with its beauty and historical significance. "Stations One: Morning View of Nihonbashi" serves as both a testament to Hiroshige's artistic prowess and as a window
