EDITORS COMMENTS
Comic Dancers in Mikawa Province" is a captivating section from Ando Hiroshige's renowned series "Cutout Pictures of the Provinces," created in 1852. This color woodblock print, part of sheet no. 4, showcases two comical dancers from Mikawa Province in Aichi, Japan. The scene is set against a backdrop of a serene landscape, with lush greenery and a blue river flowing in the background. Hiroshige masterfully captures the essence of the Edo Period through his intricate and vibrant depiction of the dancers' clothing. The male dancer wears a traditional Japanese kimono in a bold green color, adorned with intricate patterns and a sash tied around his waist. The female dancer dons a beautiful blue kimono, with a striking cartouche at the chest, and her hair styled in an elaborate updo. The comical expressions on their faces, along with their exaggerated poses, add to the playful and entertaining nature of the print. The use of color and the meticulous attention to detail in the clothing and surroundings demonstrate Hiroshige's artistic skill and the cultural heritage of Japan during the Tokugawa Period. This print is a testament to the rich artistic traditions of Asia and a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery. The "Cutout Pictures of the Provinces" series is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of Japanese art and fashion.
