EDITORS COMMENTS
View of Koganei (Koganei no kei), captured by the talented artist Ando Hiroshige in the 19th century, is a breathtaking woodblock print that showcases the beauty of Edo's suburbs. This stunning artwork, part of an untitled series depicting famous views of Edo, transports viewers back to a time when Japan was still under the Tokugawa period. In this masterpiece, Hiroshige skillfully portrays a picturesque landscape with Mount Fuji majestically rising in the background. The tranquil river flows gently through the village, reflecting vibrant colors and adding depth to the composition. Bridges gracefully span across its waters, connecting different parts of this serene countryside. The attention to detail is remarkable as every element contributes to creating a harmonious scene. From the lush greenery adorning Fousi Yama (a local mountain) to the intricate structures dotting the plain and estuary, each aspect adds authenticity and charm. Hiroshige's mastery in block printing shines through as he captures not only nature but also human life within this rural setting. The print conveys a sense of peace and tranquility while showcasing Japan's rich cultural heritage. This art piece can be found at Art Institute Chicago's gallery where it stands as a testament to Hiroshige's artistic prowess and his contribution to ukiyo-e - traditional Japanese woodblock printing. It serves as an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in Edo-period landscapes and appreciate their timeless beauty
