Tango by Utagawa Hiroshige, 1853,
Series Title: Famous Places in the
Sixty-odd Provinces, Indianapolis Museum of Art at Newfields (Indianapolis, IN)

#ArtHistory #Ukiyo-e #WoodBlockPrint
Published between 1853 and 1856 by Koshihei, Hiroshige's fantastic "Famous Views of the Sixty-odd Provinces" series features 69 prints, one for each of the 66 provinces of Japan, plus Edo and the two major islands. The series includes some of Hiroshige's most famous designs. The series represents a further development of Hiroshige's landscape print design, including some of his most modern compositions. The striking new use of a vertical format allowed Hiroshige to experiment with the foreground and background contrasts typical of his work, drawing the viewer in while at the same time implying a sense of great distance. The high vantage point of most of the designs allows for sweeping panoramas and expansive views of the beautiful countryside. Skillful bokashi shading also adds unusual depth to many of the images. In this work, a piece of forested land diagonally bisects the work. Several maruko-bune (traditional Japanese wooden sailing boats) are scattered across the water (upper right), while a lone tosa wasen (boat) sits in the lower left.
