Painting Description
"Nakagawa River Mouth No. 70" is a woodblock print from the renowned series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" by the Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. Created in the late Edo period, this series was produced between 1856 and 1858, during the final years of Hiroshige's life. The print depicts the confluence of the Nakagawa River with another body of water, capturing the expansive and serene landscape that once bordered Edo, present-day Tokyo.
As the 70th view in the series, this artwork reflects Hiroshige's mastery in portraying the changing seasons, weather conditions, and times of day, which he imbues with a sense of poetic melancholy and a deep appreciation for the fleeting beauty of nature. The "Nakagawa River Mouth" is characterized by its tranquil composition, with the river's gentle flow leading the viewer's eye into the distance, where water, sky, and the distant horizon merge.
The series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" is celebrated for its artistic innovation and influence on Western Impressionists and Post-Impressionists, who were inspired by Hiroshige's use of perspective, cropping, and color. Each print in the series, including "Nakagawa River Mouth No. 70," offers a unique glimpse into the daily life and landscapes of 19th-century Edo, making it an invaluable historical document as well as a work of art.
Hiroshige's prints, including this one, were created using the traditional Japanese woodblock printing technique, which involved a collaborative process between the artist, the carver, the printer, and the publisher. "Nakagawa River Mouth No. 70" exemplifies the technical skill and artistic vision that have made Hiroshige's work a lasting legacy in the world of art, and a defining contribution to the genre of ukiyo-e.
