Painting Description
"Suido Bridge and Surugadai" (also known as "Suidobashi Surugadai") is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. It is print number 48 from the series "Meisho Edo Hyakkei" (One Hundred Famous Views of Edo), which was created during the Edo period, specifically in the Ansei era (1853-1860). This series is considered one of Hiroshige's greatest achievements and showcases the artist's exceptional ability to capture the essence of Edo (modern-day Tokyo) through its landscapes and seasonal changes.
The print depicts the Suido Bridge, which spanned the Kanda River, and the Surugadai area in the background. Surugadai was a hill located to the west of the bridge and was known for its panoramic views of Edo. In Hiroshige's composition, the bridge acts as a focal point, leading the viewer's eye across the river towards the gently sloping Surugadai, which is illustrated with a mix of residential and temple architecture.
Hiroshige's work is characterized by his masterful use of perspective and his ability to convey the atmosphere of a particular moment. "Suido Bridge and Surugadai" is no exception; it captures the tranquility of the scene with soft colors and delicate lines, reflecting the artist's sensitivity to the changing seasons and the daily lives of Edo's citizens.
The "Meisho Edo Hyakkei" series, including "Suido Bridge and Surugadai," was highly influential and contributed to Hiroshige's lasting legacy as one of the great masters of ukiyo-e. His works have been widely reproduced and continue to be celebrated for their historical value and artistic beauty, offering a window into the urban culture of Edo-period Japan.
