EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's 'The Riverbank at Sukiya in the Eastern Capital (Toto Sukiyagashi)' is a captivating color woodblock print from the series 'Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji' (Fuji sanjurokkei), created in 1858. This masterpiece showcases the tranquil scene of a harbor in Sukiyacho, Wakayama, Japan, during the Edo period. The riverbank is dotted with houses and houseboats, with men busy at work on the rooftops and along the shore. In the background, the iconic Mount Fuji, or Fugaku, peeks through the mist and snow, adding a sense of grandeur to the peaceful scene. The print is a prime example of Hiroshige's artistic skill and the Utagawa school's mastery of the woodblock printing technique. The composition is meticulously balanced, with the curved lines of the boats and the roofs of the houses leading the viewer's gaze to the mountain in the distance. The use of color is also noteworthy, with the muted tones of the winter landscape contrasting beautifully with the vibrant reds and greens of the boats and houses. The cartouche at the bottom of the print identifies it as 'Ichiyusai Hiroshige's Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, No. 25.' This series was a significant contribution to the world of Japanese art, showcasing the natural beauty of Japan and its cultural heritage. The print is a testament to Hiroshige's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time and preserve it for future generations to appreciate.
