EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating print, titled "Shiba Shinmei Shrine and Zojoji Temple (Shiba Shinmei Zojoji)" from the series "Supplement to the One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (Edo hyakkei yokyo)" dated 1858, showcases the serene beauty of Shiba Shinmei Shrine and Zojoji Temple located in the heart of Tokyo, Japan during the Edo period. The print, a color woodblock, depicts a tranquil scene of the shrine and temple complex, nestled among lush greenery and bustling with the presence of both men and women. The shrine, dedicated to the Shinto deity, Amaterasu Omikami, is depicted on the left side of the print, with its red torii gate standing proudly against a backdrop of verdant trees. The temple, Zojoji, a Buddhist temple, is located on the right side of the print, with its impressive main hall and bell tower reaching towards the clear blue sky. The print is adorned with a cartouche at the bottom left corner, bearing the title, artist's name, and series information. Ando Hiroshige, a renowned ukiyo-e artist, masterfully captures the essence of the scene, with intricate attention to detail and vibrant colors. The print also highlights the rich cultural heritage of Japan during the Edo period, with its blend of Shinto and Buddhist traditions and the bustling activity of the people. The oban-sized print invites viewers to take a leisurely stroll down the road leading to the shrine and temple, immersing themselves in the peaceful atmosphere and the beauty of the natural surroundings. The print is a testament to Hiroshige's artistic skill and his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time, making it a valuable addition to any art collection.
