EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning woodblock print by Ando Hiroshige captures a poignant moment in the legendary tale of the Soga Brothers. Sukenari (Soga no Juro), Tokimune (Soga no Goro), and their mother are depicted at a farewell party, dressed in traditional Edo period attire.
The intricate details of their clothing, from the vibrant colors to the delicate patterns, showcase Hiroshige's mastery of color woodblock printing. The scene is set in a lush garden, with blooming flowers adding to the serene atmosphere.
As Sukenari and Tokimune prepare to bid goodbye to their mother, there is a sense of sadness and longing in their expressions. The bond between family members is palpable, even in this stylized depiction from centuries ago.
The flutist playing softly in the background adds a melancholic note to the gathering, enhancing the emotional depth of this momentous occasion. This print not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also as a window into Japanese folklore and history.
Ando Hiroshige's skillful rendering of this scene from "Illustrated Tale of the Soga Brothers" c. 1843/47 invites viewers to immerse themselves in a world where tradition meets artistry, creating an unforgettable visual experience that resonates through time.
