EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's 'The River of Waterfalls at Oji (Oji Takinogawa)' is a stunning color woodblock print from the series 'One Hundred Famous Views of Edo,' created in 1856. This work of art depicts the scenic Oji Takinogawa, a series of waterfalls located in the outskirts of Edo, Japan's capital city during the Edo period. The print showcases the estuary where the Oji River meets the Tama River, with a bridge spanning the mouth of the Oji River. The hillside is dotted with pines and other plants, their vibrant greens contrasting beautifully with the rich colors of the print. In the foreground, a group of people enjoy a leisurely pastime, playing a game of cards under the shade of a pavilion. The background is filled with the picturesque scene of the waterfalls cascading down the cliffs, their mist creating a fine spray that blends with the surrounding landscape. The print's intricate details, from the winding river to the individual leaves on the trees, showcase Hiroshige's mastery of the artistic school of ukiyo-e. 'The River of Waterfalls at Oji' is a testament to Japan's rich cultural heritage and the appreciation for nature during the Edo period. The print's timeless beauty continues to captivate audiences, making it an essential piece in any collection of Asian art.
