Rapids at Naruto, 1857
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating triptych of polychrome woodblock prints created by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige during the Edo period. This masterpiece showcases the breathtaking natural phenomena found in Naruto, Japan. The print depicts a mesmerizing scene where powerful rapids rush through a river surrounded by majestic mountains and rocky cliffs. The ink and color on paper technique used by Hiroshige brings out the vividness of the landscape, capturing every detail with precision. In this artwork, Hiroshige skillfully portrays the whirlpools formed by the rushing water as it spirals around rocks and creates an awe-inspiring spectacle. The artist's meticulous attention to detail allows viewers to almost feel the energy and force of nature depicted in this piece. Through his unique artistic style known as ukiyo-e, Hiroshige transports us to this remote location in Awa province (present-day Tokushima Prefecture), inviting us to experience its beauty firsthand. The composition of this triptych enhances our visual journey, immersing us into three different perspectives of this remarkable landscape. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, "Rapids at Naruto, 1857" stands as a testament to Hiroshige's mastery in capturing both geographical features and cultural heritage through his artistry. It serves as an enduring reminder of Japan's rich artistic legacy from the 19th century that continues to captivate audiences worldwide today.
