EDITORS COMMENTS
This polychrome woodblock print, titled "Nissaka, Sayo Nakayama" was created by the renowned Japanese artist Ando Hiroshige during the Edo period in the 19th century. Part of his iconic series called "Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido Road" this artwork showcases Hiroshige's exceptional talent for capturing landscapes and landmarks with intricate detail. In this particular print, we are transported to a mountainous region where a steep path winds through rocky terrain. The viewer is drawn into the scene as they follow the path that disappears into darkness beyond. The mountains loom majestically in shades of blue and green, evoking a sense of tranquility amidst their grandeur. One notable feature depicted here is the Night Weeping Stone (Yonaki Ishi), which adds an air of mystery to the composition. This landmark holds cultural significance and has become a popular tourist attraction over time. Hiroshige's masterful use of ink and color on paper brings life to every element within this print. From the delicate strokes depicting foliage to the meticulous rendering of rocks and hillsides, each detail contributes to creating a harmonious balance between nature and human presence. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage art piece continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty. It serves as a testament to Hiroshige's enduring legacy as one of Japan's most celebrated ukiyo-e artists, leaving us mesmerized by his ability
