EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's 'Yatsukoji, Inside Sujikai Gate' is a captivating color woodblock print from the series 'One Hundred Famous Views of Edo,' created in 1857. This oban-sized print showcases the entrance to Sujikai Gate, a significant gateway in the heart of Edo, Japan during the Tokugawa period. The serene scene is filled with vibrant greens, from the lush foliage on the trees to the moss-covered walls of the gate. The procession of pedestrians, both male and female, adds a sense of movement and life to the static image. The background people, dressed in traditional clothing, are engaged in various activities, adding depth and intrigue to the scene. A man and a woman can be seen standing near the gate, perhaps waiting for someone or enjoying the view. The intricate details of the print, from the individual leaves on the trees to the textured patterns on the gate, showcase the masterful skill of Ando Hiroshige and the artistic school of ukiyo-e. The use of color woodblock printing adds to the richness and depth of the image, making it a valuable piece of Asian art and cultural heritage. This print is now part of the collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The tranquil scene of Yatsukoji, Inside Sujikai Gate, is a testament to the beauty and complexity of Edo period Japan and the enduring legacy of Ando Hiroshige's art.
