EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "The Sumida River in Winter Snow" (Fuyu Sumidagawa no yuki), is a breathtaking depiction of the Sumida River during the winter season from the series "Famous Places in Edo in the Four Seasons" (Shiki Koto meisho), created between 1834 and 1835. The image showcases the tranquil beauty of the Sumida River, which flows through Tokyo Bay and was a significant geographical feature during the Edo period of Japan. The river is depicted as partially frozen, with small sections of open water revealing the reflection of the surrounding landscape. The scene is further enhanced by the gentle snowfall, which blankets the landscape and adds a sense of stillness and serenity. The print features a lone figure, likely a man, standing at the river's edge, gazing out at the scene before him. He is dressed in traditional Japanese attire, with a long robe and a chu tanzaku sash adorned with calligraphy. A raft is moored nearby, indicating the possibility of transportation across the river. The cartouche at the bottom right of the print includes the title, artist's name, and series title in elegant calligraphy. This stunning color woodblock print is a testament to Hiroshige's mastery of the ukiyo-e artistic style, which flourished during the Tokugawa period in Japan. The print showcases the artist's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time and place, making it a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or art history.
