Presents "Hiroshige: Birds And Flowers". Hiroshige created 5000 bird and flower studies in all which are "endlessly experimenting with design composition and color. Hiroshige captured in these paintings as nowhere else in his work his poetic and idyllic sense of Nature" Publisher's blurb. The prints in this magnificent volume were in the Abby Rockefeller Collection now housed at the Rhode Island School of Design. Hiroshige is now regarded as one of the two greatest wood-block printmakers the other being Hokusai his predecessor. Ukiyo-e which literally means "pictures of the floating world" was the art of the common people. It was not folk or primitive art nor was it royal court art either. Like the photograph today it could be infinitely reproduced as public demand dictated and typically presented Japanese life and rituals scenery and the four seasons iconic portraits and landscapes and in this instance birds and flowers. Perhaps the best term for it is "artisanal" as it depended on the mastery of one's craft rather than "concept" or "vision". Very little is known about ukiyo-e precisely because it was not considered serious art and was therefore not recorded documented collected preserved or archived. That it flourished in the 18th and 19th centuries is pretty much what we know. Westerners were awed moved and for once humbled by what they saw: Great art of the most exquisite and delicate kind dazzling virtuosity melded to a master craftsman's innate apprehension of The Beautiful. No words will do justice to the sublime beauty between the covers of this book. An absolute "must-have" title for Hiroshige and Japanese art book collectors. This title is a great art book.

1986369104New York: George Braziller Incorporated 1986. 1st. Hardcover. Fair/Good. 256 pages. Hardcover with dust jacket. Clean tight copy. Color pictures throughout. landscapes. Hiroshige's One Hundred Famous Views of Edo actually composed of 118 splendid woodblock landscape and genre scenes of mid-nineteenth century Tokyo is one of the greatest achievements of Japanese art. The series contains many of Hiroshige's best-loved and most extraordinary prints. Like Venice and Florence in the 14th and 15th centuries or Paris in the age of the Impressionists the city of Edo with its superb landmarks and its festive display of elegant urban life exerts a special and compelling fascination. Hiroshige revealed the panorama of his city's activities with subtle and vivid visual anecdotes: fireworks seen from the river fashionable geishas on parade the kabuki district at night intimate moments in the gardens and teahouses. It is a tour de force of artistic vision and printmaking craftsmanship. This edition has been reproduced from an exceptionally fine first-edition set in the Brooklyn Museum of Art to insure maximum fidelity to the original prints. Henry Smith ex-plains the world of Edo in its twilight before the Meiji Restoration and the beginnings of a modern urban society. Each plate is accompanied by a commentary that discusses its artistic and cultural interest in detail. For anyone interested in Japan the One Hundred Famous Views of Edo is perhaps the finest guide and one of the greatest legacies imaginable. Record # 369104 George Braziller Incorporated hardcover
