Shinano Province - The Moon Reflected in the Sarashina Rice Fields near Mount Kyodai
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning 19th century color woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige. This work is part of Hiroshige's famous series "Famous Places in the Sixty-odd Provinces," showcasing the beauty and diversity of Japan's geography. The print depicts the tranquil scene of the Sarashina rice fields in Nagano Prefecture, bathed in the soft glow of the full moon. Mount Kyodai, a majestic mountain range, looms in the background, its silhouette contrasting against the moonlit fields. The serene landscape is dotted with traditional houses and farm buildings, their thatched roofs blending seamlessly with the verdant greenery. The artist's masterful use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, transporting the viewer to a faraway place and time. The delicate balance between the natural elements and the built environment is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic skill and the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period. The cartouche at the bottom left of the print bears the title "Shinano, Sarashina tagoto no tsuki, Kyodaisan," along with the artist's name, "Hiroshige," and the series title, "Rokujuyoshu meisho zue." This print is a precious reminder of the beauty and harmony that can be found in the natural world, and a testament to Hiroshige's enduring legacy as a master of Japanese landscape art. This print is part of the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, one of the oldest and most distinguished art museums in the United States. It is a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art, astronomy, or the artistic traditions of Japan during the Edo period. The print's vibrant colors and intricate details continue to captivate viewers, making it a timeless work of art that transcends cultural and temporal boundaries.
