EDITORS COMMENTS
Mishima: Morning Mist" is a captivating woodblock print from the renowned series "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido Road" created by the Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige between 1833 and 1834. The print showcases the picturesque town of Mishima in Shizuoka Chubu, Japan, during the Edo period. The scene is set against the backdrop of the tranquil morning, with a thick layer of mist covering the landscape. In the foreground, a horse-drawn cart and a palanquin make their way through the town, their occupants bundled up against the chill. A man on horseback rides alongside, while a woman, possibly a traveler, walks along the road carrying her belongings. The town's buildings, with their distinctive blue and green coloration, can be seen through the mist, adding to the sense of mystery and intrigue. The print is adorned with a cartouche, which includes the artist's name, "Hiroshige," and the title of the series, "Reisho Tokaido." The calligraphy is beautifully executed, adding an artistic touch to the already stunning visuals. The use of color, particularly the green hue of the landscape, adds depth and dimension to the print, making it a true masterpiece of the 19th century. This woodblock print is a testament to the artistic school of Hiroshige and his ability to capture the essence of Japan and its people during the Edo period. It is a valuable addition to any art collection, and a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art or the history of printmaking. The print is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate viewers.
