EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating woodblock print, titled "Shinagawa: Departure of a Daimyō from the series 53 Stations of the Tokaido" transports us back to 19th-century Japan. Created by Hiroshige, Ando or Utagawa between 1831-4, this masterpiece showcases the artist's exceptional talent in capturing scenes from everyday life during the Edo period. The print depicts a bustling port in Shinagawa, which served as the first rest station along the famous Tokaido road connecting Edo (now Tokyo) with Kyoto. The scene is filled with activity as a daimyo, a feudal lord, prepares to depart on his journey. A majestic junk ship awaits him at sea while smaller boats navigate through calm waters. As dusk settles over the bay, we are drawn into this enchanting world where teahouses line the shore and bamboo groves provide serene beauty. The composition skillfully balances elements of nature and human presence, creating a harmonious atmosphere that reflects both tranquility and anticipation. Hiroshige's use of color adds depth and richness to every detail - from the vivid hues of traditional clothing worn by figures in procession to subtle shades that capture shifting light on water. This particular edition belongs to Hoeido Tokaido series among many others produced by Hiroshige throughout his career. Now housed at Los Angeles County Museum of Art in California, USA; this exquisite print continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm
