EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Station Twenty-six: Nissaka, Sayo no Nakayama" takes us back to the Edo period in 19th century Japan. Created by the renowned artist Ando Hiroshige, this polychrome woodblock print is part of his famous series called "Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido". The artwork beautifully captures a serene landscape featuring a mountainous region known as Nissaka. The viewer is immediately drawn to the majestic mountains that dominate the scene, their peaks disappearing into the clouds. A steep and winding path leads our eyes through lush hills and rocky terrain towards a mountain pass. Hiroshige's masterful use of ink and color on paper brings life to every detail, from the intricate rocks scattered along the path to the delicate foliage adorning the slopes. As we explore this picturesque setting, we can almost feel ourselves walking alongside those tiny figures who traverse this challenging route. One notable feature depicted in this artwork is an intriguing rock formation known as Night Weeping Stone. This landmark adds an air of mystery and intrigue to an already breathtaking vista. As we admire this piece at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, it serves as a reminder not only of Hiroshige's artistic brilliance but also of Japan's rich cultural heritage. It invites us to travel back in time and immerse ourselves in its beauty while appreciating nature's grandeur intertwined with human presence on this historic road - Tokaido.
