EDITORS COMMENTS
"Ando Hiroshige's captivating print, Mikawa Province: Horai Temple in the Mountains (Mikawa, Horaiji sangan), showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Owari Province in Japan during the Edo period. Part of the renowned series "Famous Places in the Sixty-odd Provinces" (Rokujuyoshu meisho zue), this masterpiece was created in 1853. The image portrays Horai Temple, nestled amidst the verdant, mist-covered mountainside. The temple, a symbol of Buddhism, is surrounded by lush greenery and is bathed in a soft, ethereal light. The mountains in the background rise majestically, their peaks shrouded in mist, adding an air of mystery and tranquility to the scene. The print is a stunning example of Hiroshige's mastery of color woodblock printing. The use of green hues dominates the image, from the vibrant foliage to the misty mountains. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate cartouche at the bottom left, which includes the title, artist's name, and other relevant information. This print is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic vision and his ability to capture the essence of a place and its people. It is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period." The Art Institute of Chicago is proud to house this magnificent piece in its collection, allowing visitors to appreciate the beauty and significance of Hiroshige's work. This print is not only a visual delight but also a historical and cultural treasure.
