EDITORS COMMENTS
Maisaka: View of Imagiri" is a stunning color woodblock print from the series "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido" created by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige between 1833 and 1834. This particular print showcases the picturesque view of Maisaka, a town located in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, Japan. The scene captures the imagery of Imagiri, a headland jutting out into the blue coastal waters of the Pacific Ocean. The print displays a tranquil scene of the coastline with fishing boats anchored at the shore, their sails rolled up and tied to the piling. The boats seem to blend seamlessly with the grey-blue hue of the water, creating a serene and harmonious image. The promontory of Imagiri, with its rocky cliffs and green foliage, stands majestically against the backdrop of the open sea. Ando Hiroshige's mastery of the traditional Japanese artistic school is evident in the intricate details of the print, from the ripples in the water to the individual planks of the boats. The cartouche at the bottom of the print identifies the location as Maisaka and Imagiri, adding to the historical significance of the piece. During the Edo period, the Tokaido trade route was a famous sight for travelers, and the series of prints depicting the fifty-three stations along this route became a popular artistic expression of the time. This print, "Maisaka: View of Imagiri," is a testament to Hiroshige's ability to capture the essence of a place and transport the viewer to another time and place through his art. Today, this print is a cherished piece of heritage art, showcased in galleries and museums around the world, including the Art Institute of Chicago. It continues to inspire and captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and artistic mastery.
