EDITORS COMMENTS
Nihon Bridge (Nihonbashi), from the series Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido by Ando Hiroshige, captures a serene moment at one of the most iconic landmarks of Edo Period Japan. The bridge, also known as Edo Bridge, is depicted here as a wooden structure spanning the Nihon River, with boats and a larger vessel anchored nearby. The bustling activity of travelers and local people is evident in the background, with figures dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, including kimonos and checked garments, making their way across the bridge. The intricate details of the scene are showcased through the meticulous technique of chuban color woodblock printing, a popular artistic school during the 19th century. The bridge serves as a geographical feature marking the arrival at Station 32 on the Tokaido Road, one of the most important trade routes connecting Kyoto and Edo. This beautiful work of art, created by the renowned artist Ando Hiroshige, provides a glimpse into the rich heritage of Japanese culture and fashion during the Edo Period.
