EDITORS COMMENTS
Zenjibo, from the series "Illustrated Tale of the Soga Brothers (Soga monogatari zue)", c. 1843/47 by Ando Hiroshige captures a moment of intense emotion and inner turmoil. In this stunning colour woodblock print, we see a man standing barefoot on an engawa, or veranda, overlooking a serene garden filled with vibrant irises. The artist skillfully portrays Zenjibo's anger and annoyance through his facial expression and body language. His clenched fists and furrowed brow reveal his fury as he gazes off into the distance. The contrast between his agitated state and the tranquil surroundings creates a powerful visual tension. Hiroshige's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork. From the intricate patterns on Zenjibo's kimono to the delicate bamboo fence in the background, each element contributes to the overall composition. The use of bold colours adds depth and intensity to the scene, further emphasizing Zenjibo's emotional state. As one of Japan's most celebrated ukiyo-e artists during the Edo period, Hiroshige masterfully combines nature with human emotions in this piece. Through his skilful printing techniques, he transports us back in time to witness a captivating moment from ancient Japanese history. This print serves as a testament to Hiroshige's artistic prowess and continues to captivate viewers today with its timeless beauty.
