EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant woodblock print captures the essence of Narumi, a local fabric Arimatsu Shibori shop, along the Tokaido road in Japan. Created by Hiroshige, Ando or Utagawa in 1834-35, this artwork showcases the beauty and intricacy of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. The scene depicts a bustling street filled with male and female travelers on their journey along the eastern coast road. The shops and workshops lining the road offer a glimpse into the world of dying fabrics using the Arimatsu Shibori technique. This ancient method involves tying knots in fabric before dyeing it, resulting in a mesmerizing pattern of dyed and undyed areas. The print transports us to an era where traditional dress played an important role in Japanese culture. The hanging materials outside each shop showcase various colors and patterns that would have been used for creating exquisite garments. As we admire this piece from Musees d'Angers in Angers, France, we are reminded of the historical significance of the Tokaido road as it connected Edo (now Tokyo) to Kyoto during Japan's Edo period. It served as a vital route for trade and cultural exchange. Through this artwork, we can appreciate not only Hiroshige's artistic talent but also gain insight into Japan's rich textile heritage.
