Painting Description
"Shimonoseki Harbour with Boats, Nagato Province" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. It is part of his series "Famous Places of the Sixty Provinces" (Rokujūyoshū Meisho Zue), which was created between 1853 and 1856. This series features landscapes from each of the sixty-odd provinces of Japan, which were defined by the Tokugawa shogunate.
The print depicts a serene view of the harbor at Shimonoseki, a strategic coastal city in Nagato Province, which is now part of Yamaguchi Prefecture. In the artwork, Hiroshige captures the bustling activity of the harbor with boats of various sizes, some likely engaged in trade and fishing, reflecting the economic vitality of the region during the Edo period. The composition may include elements such as the Kanmon Straits, which separate Honshu and Kyushu, and the distant mountains, possibly representing the characteristic landscape of the area.
Hiroshige's work is celebrated for its masterful use of perspective, color, and composition, which brings out the beauty and tranquility of the Japanese landscape while also documenting the cultural and economic aspects of the period. "Shimonoseki Harbour with Boats, Nagato Province" is a fine example of Hiroshige's landscape prints and is highly regarded for its artistic and historical significance. It is a sought-after piece among collectors of Japanese art and is studied for its contribution to the development of landscape art in Japan and the influence it had on Western artists during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
