EDITORS COMMENTS
This color woodblock print, titled "The Mimeguri Embankment on the Sumida River (Sumidagawa Mimeguri tsutsumi)" is a masterpiece by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Hiroshige II, created in the 19th century during the Edo period. Part of the series "Famous Places in the Eastern Capital (Toto meisho)," this print showcases the picturesque Mimeguri Embankment located on the Sumida River in Tokyo, Japan. The serene scene unfolds with the winding Sumida River, its blue waters meeting the estuary, and the riverbank dotted with men and women enjoying the scenery. In the background, the towering Inari Shrine at Mimeguri stands proudly, its red torii gates and orange roofs contrasting against the cool blue tones of the river and sky. The print is adorned with a cartouche featuring the artist's name, "Ni daime Utagawa Hiroshige," and the publisher's mark, "Koshibei." The intricate details and vibrant colors showcase the artistic skill and dedication to traditional techniques of the Utagawa school, led by Morita Chimpei and Kisai Rissho. This print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the beauty of its geography, transporting viewers to a tranquil moment in time.
