EDITORS COMMENTS
Scattered Pines on the Tone River," a captivating woodblock print from the renowned series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" created by Ando Hiroshige in 1856, presents a breathtaking scene of the Tone River estuary in Japan during the Edo period. The print showcases the serene beauty of the natural world, with the meandering river winding through the landscape, dotted with small fishing boats and fishermen casting their nets. The title refers to the solitary pine trees scattered along the riverbank, their branches reaching out towards the water, providing a striking contrast against the blue-green river and the white-capped waves. In the background, the rolling hills and mountains can be seen, their lush greenery framing the river scene. The print is further enhanced by the intricate details of the boats, the fisherfolk, and the birds perched on the trees and boats, adding a sense of life and activity to the peaceful landscape. The cartouche at the bottom right corner of the print bears the title, artist's name, and the date of creation. Ando Hiroshige, also known as Ando Utagawa Hiroshige and Hiroshige I, was a prominent Japanese artist of the Utagawa school, known for his mastery of the color woodblock print technique. His works, including "Scattered Pines on the Tone River," are celebrated for their vivid colors, intricate details, and evocative depictions of everyday life in Japan during the Edo period. This print is now part of the permanent collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, a testament to Hiroshige's enduring legacy as a master of Japanese art.
