EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cent vues celebres d'Edo: The 'Pine of Success' and Oumayagashi on the Asakusa River" takes us back in time to 19th century Japan. Created by Hiroshige, Utagawa, a renowned Japanese artist from the Edo period, this colour woodcut showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the essence of landscapes. In this particular scene, we are transported to the banks of the Asakusa River in Edo (now Tokyo). The image is set during nighttime, adding an air of mystery and tranquility to the composition. A majestic pine tree known as the "Pine of Success" stands tall against a dark sky adorned with stars. Its branches reach out gracefully over the river, creating a mesmerizing reflection on its calm waters. A traditional boat or ship can be seen gliding along the river's surface, symbolizing transportation and movement within this bustling cityscape. Hiroshige's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; even calligraphy and signature elements are present in this exquisite artwork. The State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg proudly houses this masterpiece that beautifully encapsulates Japanese culture and tradition. This print allows us to appreciate not only Hiroshige's artistic prowess but also offers a glimpse into life during 19th-century Japan – truly a treasure worth cherishing for art enthusiasts worldwide.
