EDITORS COMMENTS
Fox Fire on New Year's Eve at the Changing Tree at Oji," a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige, showcases the mystical and enchanting atmosphere of New Year's Eve in the Edo period of Japan. The print is part of Hiroshige's famous series, "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo." The scene unfolds at the Oji Inari Shrine in Nara, Japan, where a group of people have gathered around the hackberry tree, awaiting the appearance of the foxes. According to Japanese legend, on New Year's Eve, the foxes gather around the changing tree to pay homage to the deity Inari. The tree is illuminated by the mysterious "fox fire," or "kitsunebi," which is believed to be the foxes' own light. The print captures the intrigue and wonder of this legendary event, as the dark night is illuminated by the flickering flames of the fox fire. The procession of people, dressed in traditional clothing, adds to the festive and religious atmosphere. The print also highlights the natural beauty of the scene, with the intricately detailed depiction of the hackberry tree and the surrounding plants. This woodblock print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the enduring appeal of its legends and traditions. The intricate process of creating a color woodblock print involved carving the design into woodblocks, inking them, and pressing them onto paper. The result is a stunning work of art that captures the essence of a moment in time and transports us to another place and era. This print is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The print serves as a reminder of the power of art to transport us to other worlds and to connect us to our shared human experiences and traditions.
