EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cent vues celebres d'Edo: Ueno Yamashita (One Hundred Famous Views of Edo)" by Hiroshige, Utagawa takes us on a journey back to 19th century Japan. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this colour woodcut transport us to the bustling streets of Edo, now known as Tokyo. The image captures a cityscape teeming with life and energy. People fill the streets, going about their daily routines amidst the backdrop of traditional Japanese architecture. The artist's skillful use of calligraphy adds an authentic touch, reminding us of the rich cultural heritage that permeates every aspect of life in Edo. In the foreground, we see a sign adorned with Japanese characters, drawing our attention to a sunshade parasol that provides respite from the sun's rays. Beyond it lies a monument surrounded by lush gardens and parks—a testament to Japan's reverence for nature even within its urban landscapes. The scene also hints at culinary delights awaiting exploration as we catch glimpses of restaurants tucked away in hidden corners. This print encapsulates not only the physical beauty but also the essence and spirit of Edo—an era defined by tradition and innovation coexisting harmoniously. Preserved in St. Petersburg's State Hermitage Museum, this artwork allows us to appreciate Hiroshige's masterful craftsmanship from afar. It serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries—it transcends time and place—continuing to inspire
