EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating print, "Inume Pass in Kai Province (Kai Inume toge)" from the series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fuji sanjurokkei)" transports us to the picturesque landscapes of Japan during the Edo period. This exquisite color woodblock print, created in 1858, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Inume Pass in Kai Province, located in present-day Yamanashi Prefecture. The image captures the grandeur of the mountain pass, with its towering cliffs and winding pathway that leads travelers through the rugged terrain. The serene scene is set against the backdrop of Mount Fuji, Japan's iconic mountain, which stands majestically in the distance. The pass is named after the fox (kitsune) that is said to inhabit the area, and the print depicts a lone traveler, possibly a man, making his way through the pass, adding a sense of scale and perspective to the landscape. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the print bring the scene to life, with the overhanging cliffs casting deep shadows and the grey rocks contrasting against the lush greenery of the plants and trees. The print is a testament to Hiroshige's mastery of the artistic school of ukiyo-e, which focused on the depiction of the natural world and everyday life. This print is a valuable heritage piece that showcases the rich cultural and artistic heritage of Japan and the continent of Asia. The intricate details and stunning beauty of the print continue to captivate viewers and inspire artists to this day.
