EDITORS COMMENTS
Ando Hiroshige's captivating woodblock print, titled "Kii Province: Wakanoura Bay (Kii, Wakanoura)" from the series "Famous Places in the Sixty-odd Provinces (Rokujuyoshu meisho zue)" created in 1855, offers a breathtaking view of Wakanoura Bay in the Kii Province of Japan. The Edo Period masterpiece showcases the picturesque coastline with its crystal-clear waters gently lapping against the shore. The bay is dotted with fishing boats, adding a sense of liveliness and activity to the scene. In the foreground, a group of storks and other wading birds can be seen gracefully wading in the shallow waters, their long legs and elegant necks creating a striking contrast against the rocky shoreline. The vibrant colors of the birds stand out against the muted tones of the landscape, adding a pop of life and energy to the print. The print also features a majestic crane flying overhead, adding a touch of mythology and symbolism to the scene. The crane, a revered bird in Japanese culture, is often associated with longevity and good fortune. The intricate details of the print, from the ripples in the water to the individual feathers on the birds, are a testament to Hiroshige's mastery of the woodblock printing technique. The oban-size print is a must-have for any collection of Japanese art and a beautiful representation of the natural beauty of Japan during the Tokugawa Period.
