EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's Odawara, section of sheet no. 3 from the series 'Cutout Pictures of the Tokaido,' created around 1848-52, presents a captivating image of a lone figure in a circular green hat, carrying a large bundle on his back, as he takes a rest at the side of the road. The serene backdrop of Odawara, a city in the Kanagawa prefecture of Japan, is depicted in intricate detail with vibrant colors and intricate patterns. The man's rounded silhouette, set against the backdrop of the rolling hills and winding Tokaido road, creates a sense of depth and perspective. This color woodblock print, part of the larger series 'Harimaze Zue' or 'Cutout Pictures of the Tokaido,' showcases Hiroshige's masterful use of color and composition. The green color dominates the scene, from the man's hat to the lush foliage, creating a harmonious and soothing atmosphere. The intricate design of the man's clothing and the patterns on the road add to the overall artistic quality of the piece. Hiroshige, born as Ando Hiroshige I, was a prominent figure in the artistic school of ukiyo-e, or 'pictures of the floating world,' during the Edo period in Japan. His work, characterized by its detailed and expressive depictions of everyday life, remains a significant contribution to the heritage of Asian art. This section of sheet no. 3 from the series 'Cutout Pictures of the Tokaido' is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic skill and his ability to capture the essence of Japan during the 19th century. The image invites the viewer to take a closer look at the intricacies of the scene and to appreciate the beauty of the details, from the man's posture to the patterns on the road.
