EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating view of Mount Fuji from across Miho Bay in Suruga Province, Japan, showcases the breathtaking beauty of the iconic mountain and its reflection on the tranquil sea. This color woodblock print, titled "View of Mount Fuji from across the Sea at Miho Bay in Suruga Province (Sunshu Fujisan Miho no kaijo yori chobo)," is part of Hiroshige's renowned series "Ten Views of Famous Mountains in the Provinces (Meizan tsukushi shokoku jukkei)." The print, created during the Edo period in the mid-19th century, captures the essence of the Japanese landscape with intricate attention to detail. The mountain, known as Fujiyama or Fousi Yama, is depicted in all its majesty, with its snow-capped peak rising above the surrounding landscape. The boats in the foreground add a sense of scale and activity to the scene, while the figures in traditional Japanese clothing, dressed in kimonos, add a touch of humanity to the otherwise serene image. The cartouche at the bottom right of the print provides essential information about the location and artist, including the name of the province, Suruga, and the artist's title, Ichiryusai Hiroshige. The print's vibrant colors and intricate details make it a valuable piece of artistic heritage, showcasing the skill and creativity of Ando Hiroshige and the artistic school of ukiyo-e. This print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the enduring beauty of its natural landscapes. It invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of nature and the intricacies of Japanese art and fashion during the Edo period.
