EDITORS COMMENTS
This color woodblock print, created by Utagawa Hiroshige II in 1859, depicts the Precincts of Naritasan Temple in Shimosa Province, Japan. Part of the One Hundred Famous Views in the Various Provinces series, this work showcases the artistic prowess of the Ukiyo-e school during the Edo period. The print captures the serene beauty of the temple complex, nestled amidst a forested landscape. The temple buildings, with their distinctive red and gold roofs, rise above the misty landscape, creating a sense of tranquility and spirituality. The print also features a group of male and female travelers, dressed in traditional attire, exploring the temple grounds. The cartouche at the bottom left of the print identifies the creator as Ni Daime Utagawa Hiroshige, and includes the names of several other artists involved in the production of the print, including Morita Chimpei and Kisai Rissho. The print is further adorned with intricate details, such as the ornate patterns on the temple buildings and the delicate brushwork of the misty scenery. The Precincts of Naritasan Temple in Shimosa Province is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan during the 19th century. The print invites viewers to imagine the journey of the travelers, as they make their way through the temple grounds, and to reflect on the enduring beauty and significance of Buddhism in Japanese culture.
