EDITORS COMMENTS
Mount Atago, Shiba (Shiba Atagoyama)," is a stunning color woodblock print from the renowned series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" (Meisho Edo hyakkei) created by the masterful Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige in 1857. This work of art showcases Mount Atago, a prominent geographical feature located in the Shiba district of Tokyo, Japan. The mountain is depicted as a solitary, majestic presence, rising above the tranquil sea and the surrounding landscape. Ando Hiroshige, also known as Ando Utagawa Hiroshige and Hiroshige I, was a leading figure of the Ukiyo-e artistic school during the Edo and Tokugawa periods. His works are celebrated for their exquisite attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of Japan's natural beauty. In this print, the artist skillfully employs a rich color palette, with the mountain's brown, rocky surface contrasting beautifully against the vibrant greens and blues of the foliage and water. The print features a lone figure, a man, standing at the water's edge, gazing up at the mountain in reverence. He holds a prayer paddle, a traditional Japanese implement used for making offerings to the gods. This image of arrival and contemplation adds an emotional depth to the scene, inviting the viewer to reflect on the connection between the natural world and the human spirit. Mount Atago, Shiba (Shiba Atagoyama) is a testament to Ando Hiroshige's artistic mastery and the enduring appeal of Japanese woodblock prints. Today, this precious work is housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences from all corners of the world.
