EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cent vues celebres d'Edo: Nihon Embankment and Yoshiwara" takes us on a journey back in time to 19th century Japan. Created by the renowned artist Hiroshige, Utagawa, this colour woodcut showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the essence of Edo (now Tokyo) through his art. The image depicts a serene landscape with an external view of Nihon Embankment and Yoshiwara. The delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors bring life to every detail, from the majestic bird soaring across the moonlit sky to the bustling port below. In the foreground, we see a hardworking porter carrying a crate along a winding road, symbolizing the industrious nature of Japanese society during that era. Hiroshige's mastery is further evident in his use of calligraphy and signature within the artwork itself - an artistic touch that adds authenticity and cultural significance to this piece. As we admire this print, we are transported into a world where tradition meets innovation, where ancient customs coexist with modernity. Displayed at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, this print is not only visually stunning but also holds historical value as it represents one of Hiroshige's famous series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo". It serves as a reminder of Japan's rich artistic heritage and its enduring influence on global art movements. With its intricate details and evocative atmosphere
