EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Zojoji in Shiba" from the series "Famous Views of Edo," dates back to the 1850s of the 19th century in Japan, during the Tokugawa period. This exquisite work of art showcases the serene and spiritual atmosphere of Zojoji Temple located in the Shiba district of Tokyo. The temple, enclosed by a stone wall, is depicted with its iconic red gate and two tall, ornate pillars adorned with intricate carvings. The temple grounds are bustling with activity as people in traditional Japanese clothing, including men and women wearing kimonos, make their way through the temple grounds. Some are in deep meditation, while others are in quiet conversation. The background of the print features the vibrant colors of autumn leaves, adding a sense of tranquility and beauty to the scene. The intricate details of the temple architecture, the clothing of the people, and the natural surroundings are all expertly rendered in this stunning work of art. Ando Hiroshige, also known as Ando Utagawa Hiroshige or Ichiryusai Hiroshige, was a renowned Japanese artist of the Ukiyo-e genre, known for his masterful use of color and composition. This print is a testament to his skill and the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to have this precious piece of history in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and intricacy of Japanese art and the religious practices of the time.
