EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating print, Mannen Bridge, Fukagawa (Fukagawa Mannenbashi), showcases the picturesque scene of the Mannen Bridge in the Fukagawa district of Tokyo, Japan, during the Edo period (1603-1868). This stunning work of art is part of Hiroshige's renowned series, One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (Meisho Edo hyakkei), created in 1857. The print depicts the bridge arching gracefully over the Onagi River, which meets the Tokyo Bay at the estuary. Boats and sailing boats can be seen navigating the river, with the mouth of the river and the distant horizon providing a sense of vastness and distance. The brown hues of the print, achieved through the traditional color woodblock printing process, add a warm and earthy tone to the image. The background is populated with figures, adding a sense of activity and life to the scene. The bridge itself is a focal point, with its intricate details and elegant design showcasing the artistic skill of Hiroshige. The print also highlights the geographical features of the area, with the bridge spanning the river and the river meeting the sea, providing a glimpse into the geography of Edo Japan. Hiroshige's mastery of the woodblock printing technique is evident in the intricate details and delicate shading of the print. The print is a testament to the artistic school of the time and the rich cultural heritage of Japan. This beautiful work of art is a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art, and is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago's collection.
