EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's Bizen, section of sheet no. 14 from the series "Cutout Pictures of the Provinces..." (Kunizukushi harimaze zue), created in 1852, is a stunning example of the ukiyo-e (floating world) artistic tradition of Japan. This color woodblock print showcases a close-up view of a table filled with various bottles and ceramics, arranged against a backdrop of calligraphy and intricate patterns. The scene is set in Bizen Province, located in the Chugoku region of Honshu, Japan. The still life composition is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo and Tokugawa periods. The ceramics displayed are primarily stoneware, with various glazes and colors showcasing the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. The bottles, with their intricate shapes and designs, add to the visual appeal of the arrangement. The artist's masterful use of woodblock printing techniques is evident in the fine details and textures of the ceramics and bottles. The calligraphy in the background adds a literary and intellectual element to the composition, further enhancing the overall aesthetic. This print is a precious piece of Asian art history, reflecting the artistic schools and traditions of Japan during the 19th century. It is a reminder of the beauty and intricacy of the objects and art forms that were cherished and celebrated during this period. The Bizen print is a must-see for anyone interested in the arts of Asia or the history of ukiyo-e woodblock printing.
