EDITORS COMMENTS
Fukagawa Susaki and Jumantsubo," a captivating woodblock print from the renowned series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" (Meisho Edo hyakkei) by Ando Hiroshige, dates back to 1857. This exquisite piece of art showcases the stunning scenery of Fukagawa Susaki in Tokyo, Japan, during the Edo period. The composition features a breathtaking view of the Fukagawa district, with its iconic Susaki area, where the serene landscape is contrasted by the majestic presence of Jumantsubo, a legendary eagle perched high up on a tree, spreading its magnificent plumage against the backdrop of snow-covered mountains. The print, created in the traditional oban size, is a testament to Hiroshige's mastery of color woodblock printing. The artist's deft use of color and intricate details bring the scene to life, capturing the essence of the seasonal transformation and the beauty of nature. The cartouche at the bottom left of the print bears the artist's name, "Hiroshige," and the title "Fukagawa Susaki Jumantsubo." Jumantsubo, a mythical bird of prey, is a symbol of power and strength in Japanese folklore. Its presence in the print adds an element of mystery and intrigue, making this piece not only a beautiful representation of the landscape but also a fascinating glimpse into the cultural traditions of Edo Japan. This masterpiece is now part of the esteemed collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, showcasing the rich artistic heritage of Asia and the world. The print's enduring appeal lies in its ability to transport us to a different time and place, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and wonder of nature and the artistry of one of Japan's greatest masters.
