EDITORS COMMENTS
No. 66: Echikawa from the series Sixty-nine Stations of the Kisokaido, by Ando Hiroshige, is a stunning 19th-century color woodblock print that showcases the picturesque scene of Echikawa in the Aisho Echi district of Shiga, Japan. The print captures the essence of rural life during the Edo period, with an agricultural worker in traditional clothing and a basket hat standing at the edge of a bridge over an estuary. The bridge, with its intricate design, spans the body of water, connecting the two banks and leading the viewer deeper into the landscape. The farmhand, dressed in simple yet colorful clothing, is shown in a contemplative moment, gazing off into the distance. The print's vibrant colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, capturing the beauty and simplicity of rural Japan during this period. The print is a testament to the artistic school of Ando Hiroshige, also known as Ando Utagawa Hiroshige or Hiroshige I, who is renowned for his mastery of the ukiyo-e genre. This print is a valuable heritage art piece, showcasing the rich cultural history of Japan and its agricultural traditions. It is a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art, particularly those with a focus on the 19th century or the Edo period. The print is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is admired by visitors from around the world. With its intricate details, beautiful colors, and captivating subject matter, No. 66: Echikawa from the series Sixty-nine Stations of the Kisokaido is a true masterpiece of Japanese art.
