EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Flowers Beside the Tamagawa-Zutsumi" (image 1 of 3), dates back to the 1850s of the 19th century in Japan. This masterpiece, created by the renowned artist Ando Hiroshige, also known as Ando Utagawa Hiroshige or Ichiryusai Hiroshige, showcases the beauty of nature and the elegance of traditional Japanese attire. The scene is set along the banks of the Tama River, specifically at the Tamagawa-Zutsumi embankment in Honshu, Japan. The serene river is dotted with colorful parasols and the lush greenery of trees and blossoming plants contrasts beautifully with the vibrant clothing of the female figures in the foreground. The background is populated with people dressed in traditional Japanese garb, adding to the authenticity of the scene. The women in the print are adorned in intricately designed kimonos and hats, their parasols providing shade from the sun. The parasols themselves are a fascinating accessory, adding a touch of sophistication and elegance to the overall composition. The parasols, like the clothing, are also adorned with intricate patterns, reflecting the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the era. The rich colors and intricate details of the print transport us back to the Edo period (1603-1868) and the Tokugawa era (1603-1868), providing a glimpse into the heritage and culture of Japan during that time. The print is a testament to the enduring beauty of nature and the artistry of Ando Hiroshige, making it a valuable addition to any collection of Asian or heritage art.
