Painting Description
"The Ryogoku Bridge, From The Series Meisho Edo Hyakkei [One Hundred Famous Views Of Edo]" is a celebrated woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. This work is part of Hiroshige's acclaimed series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo," which was published by Uoya Eikichi and is widely regarded as one of the pinnacles of Japanese woodblock printing. The series, created between 1856 and 1858, captures the essence of Edo (modern-day Tokyo) through a collection of visually stunning and meticulously detailed landscapes and cityscapes.
"The Ryogoku Bridge" print showcases the iconic bridge spanning the Sumida River, a vital artery in Edo's bustling urban life. The bridge itself was a significant landmark, connecting the eastern and western parts of the city and serving as a hub for commerce and daily activities. Hiroshige's depiction of the bridge is both dynamic and serene, capturing the flow of people and goods while also highlighting the natural beauty of the surrounding environment.
In this particular print, Hiroshige employs his signature use of perspective and vibrant colors to create a sense of depth and movement. The composition is carefully balanced, with the bridge cutting diagonally across the scene, drawing the viewer's eye from one side of the river to the other. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the figures, boats, and architectural elements, all of which contribute to the overall harmony of the piece.
The print bears the censor's seal "Aratame," indicating that it was approved for publication, and it is signed "Hiroshige Ge," a mark of authenticity. Despite the presence of wormholes in the margins, the impression and colors of this particular print are noted to be very good, suggesting that it has been well-preserved over the years.
Hiroshige's "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" series, and "The Ryogoku Bridge" in particular, have had a lasting impact on both Japanese and Western art. The series influenced many Western artists, including the Impressionists, who admired Hiroshige's innovative use of perspective and color. Today, these prints are highly valued by collectors and art historians alike, serving as a window into the cultural and historical landscape of Edo-period Japan.
