EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour woodblock print titled "View of Fujikawa" by Kunisada, Utagawa (Toyokuni III) offers a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of ancient Japan. Set against a backdrop inspired by Hiroshige's design for the First Tokaido, this artwork transports us to a serene landscape filled with symbolic elements. In this scene, we see a woman standing on beige clouds with her hair unpinned and dressed in a khaki kimono. She carries a tub of washing, showcasing the daily chores that were an integral part of life during that era. Behind her, a man respectfully squats as he observes the passing daimyo procession. The horses adorned with paper streamers in their manes add an element of festivity to the composition. Published by Sanoya Kihei (Kikakud?) and signed ?ju Kunisada ga, this print is part of the renowned series "Fifty-three Stations of the T?kaid? Road". It beautifully captures not only scenes from everyday life but also highlights important landmarks along this historic road.
