EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Omi Province: Lake Biwa and Ishiyama Temple (Omi, Biwako Ishiyamadera)" from the series "Famous Places in the Sixty-odd Provinces" (Rokujuyoshu meisho zue), dates back to 1853. This masterpiece showcases the breathtaking beauty of Omi Province, specifically Lake Biwa and the Ishiyama Temple in Shiga Prefecture, Kinki, Japan. The print depicts the tranquil Lake Biwa, the largest freshwater lake in Japan, surrounded by lush greenery and mountains. The moon, in its full glory, rises majestically over the lake, casting a gentle glow on the water's surface and reflecting the temple's elegant silhouette. Ishiyama Temple, with its iconic red gate and three-storied pagoda, stands proudly on the shore, bathed in the ethereal moonlight. The print is a stunning example of the Ukiyo-e artistic school, which flourished during the Edo period. The intricate details of the temple and the background people add depth and life to the serene landscape. The cartouche at the bottom left corner provides essential information about the location, including the province name, the lake, and the temple. The print's color palette, dominated by blues, greys, and reds, perfectly captures the peaceful atmosphere of the scene. The print's oban size and high-quality color woodblock printing technique make it a valuable addition to any art collection. This print is a testament to Hiroshige's exceptional talent and his ability to capture the essence of Japan's geography and cultural heritage. It invites viewers to explore the rich history and natural beauty of Omi Province and Japan as a whole.
