EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Oiso" from the renowned series "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido (Tokaido gojusan tsugi)," dates back to the 19th century. This exquisite piece of art, created between 1837 and 1842, showcases the picturesque coastal town of Oiso in Kanagawa, Japan. The print is also known as the "Tokaido with Poem (Kyoka iri Tokaido)" series. The scene portrays a bustling harbor with boats and fishermen, as well as travelers and local residents going about their daily lives. In the foreground, a man in a straw hat rests at the edge of the water, gazing out at the horizon. A woman, dressed in traditional Japanese attire, carries a large basket on her back, while another man, possibly a merchant, holds a fan and a map. The print's vibrant colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, with the blue water contrasting beautifully against the red and orange hues of the buildings and the green of the trees. The calligraphy in the cartouche at the bottom right corner adds an elegant touch, further emphasizing the artistic mastery of Hiroshige. This chuban-sized print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period and offers a glimpse into the daily life of the people along the Tokaido Road. The scenic beauty of Oiso is captured in stunning detail, making it a must-have for any art collection focused on Asian art or the works of Ando Hiroshige.
