Shimada
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating woodblock print from Ando Hiroshige's renowned series, "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido." Created during the mid-19th century in Japan, this masterpiece showcases the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of the Edo and Tokugawa periods. The scene depicts travelers crossing a river at Shimada, one of the stations along the Tokaido Road, which was a major trade route connecting Tokyo (Edo) and Kyoto. The print is rich in detail, with a serene landscape in the background featuring mountains, trees, and a houseboat anchored in the river. The foreground is bustling with activity as men and women ford the river, some carrying their belongings on their backs, while others ride on boats. A man in a straw raincoat stands at the riverbank, gazing intently at the scene before him. The cartouche at the top right corner of the print includes the title "Shimada," the name of the station, and a poem in calligraphy. This stunning work of art is an excellent representation of the Chuban format, a smaller size used for prints that were more affordable for a wider audience. The vibrant colors and intricate details make it a standout piece in any collection of Asian art. The "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido" series is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic vision and his ability to capture the beauty and diversity of Japan during the Edo and Tokugawa periods. This print is a must-have for anyone interested in Asian art, landscape, or the history of printmaking.
