EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's View of Tsukuda Island from Eitai Bridge (Eitaibashi Tsukudajima) is an exquisite example of the artist's mastery of the woodblock print technique during the Edo period of Japan (1603-1868). Part of Hiroshige's renowned series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" (Meisho Edo hyakkei), this image showcases the beauty and intricacy of the Tsukuda Island landscape. The print depicts a serene night scene, with the moon casting a gentle glow over the tranquil waters of Tokyo Bay. The bridge's structure, Eitai Bridge (Eitaibashi), connects the mainland to Tsukuda Island, a popular destination for leisurely outings and fishing. The boats in the foreground, along with the gangplank, suggest the bustling activity of the island's port. The cartouche at the bottom left of the print identifies the location and artist, while the oban-sized print's intricate details reveal Hiroshige's meticulous attention to geographical features and astronomical elements. The artist's use of contrasting colors, such as the black night sky and brown bridge, adds depth and dimension to the scene. This woodblock print is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic prowess and the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Tokugawa period. The View of Tsukuda Island from Eitai Bridge is a timeless work of art that continues to inspire and captivate audiences around the world.
