EDITORS COMMENTS
Mishima: Morning Mist" is a stunning woodblock print from the esteemed series "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido Road" created by the legendary Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige between 1833 and 1834. This image, also known as "Mishima: Asagiri," showcases the picturesque town of Mishima in Shizuoka Chubu, Japan, during the Edo period. The scene is set at the break of dawn, with the misty morning casting a dreamlike veil over the landscape. The print depicts a bustling scene at the Mishima station, where travelers are preparing for their journey along the Tokaido Road. A group of men are seen carrying a palanquin, while others are busy loading goods onto a cartouche or sedan chair. A woman, perhaps a traveler herself, looks on from a distance, her expression a mix of curiosity and anticipation. The intricate details of the print are a testament to Hiroshige's mastery of the color woodblock printing technique. The muted tones of the misty morning give way to vibrant splashes of color, highlighting the various professions and occupations of the people depicted. The use of oban size and the careful attention to scenery and detail make this print a standout in the series. This beautiful work of art is a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life and transportation methods of Japan during the 19th century. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the artistic school of ukiyo-e or the history and culture of Asia.
