EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's Night View of Matsuchi Hill and the San'ya Canal, from the series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, is a stunning 19th century color woodblock print that captures the serene beauty of Matsuchi Hill and the San'ya Canal in Edo, Japan. The print, created in 1857, showcases the tranquility of the night scene with the illuminated lanterns along the canal reflecting on the still water. The hill, adorned with cherry trees, adds an elegant touch to the landscape. The people in the print, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing such as kimonos and geta sandals, add a sense of authenticity to the scene. The use of color, particularly the contrast between the black night sky and the red lanterns and the blue water, adds depth and dimension to the print. The cartouche at the bottom left of the print identifies the location and the artist, Hiroshige I, also known as Ando Hiroshige and Ando Utagawa Hiroshige. This print is a testament to the artistic school of the time and the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period. The intricate details and the use of traditional techniques make this a valuable piece of Asian art, now housed in the Art Institute of Chicago.
