EDITORS COMMENTS
Fujikawa: Lodgings and Shops on the Mountainside" is a stunning color woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige between 1841 and 1844. This artwork is part of Hiroshige's famous series "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido," also known as the Gyosho Tokaido. The print depicts a bustling scene on the mountainside of Fujikawa, a lodging town located in Okazaki, Aichi, Japan, during the Edo period. The image showcases a hillside dotted with lodgings and shops, providing weary travelers with much-needed rest and supplies as they journeyed along the Tokaido Road. The print is rich in detail, with intricately designed buildings, people going about their daily activities, and an array of colorful shop fronts. The cartouche at the top left corner bears the title "Fujikawa, sanchu shuku shoka," while the artist's name, "Hiroshige," is written in the lower right corner. The scene is dominated by the towering hills and the winding road leading up to them, with travelers and locals making their way up the hillside. The contrast between the brown hills and the vibrant colors of the shops and lodgings creates a striking visual effect. This print is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic mastery and his ability to capture the essence of everyday life during the Tokugawa period. It is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Japan during this time. The print measures approximately 36.5 x 25.8 cm and is an aiban (key block) print, indicating that it was one of the first prints made from the woodblock. It is an essential piece for any art center, art gallery, or art institute, and a must-see for anyone interested in the artistic schools and artistic traditions of Asia.
