EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating woodblock print captures a moment of adventure and comedy in the Great Buddha Hall at Kyoto. Created by Hiroshige, Ando or Utagawa during the 19th century, this artwork is part of the series "Dochu Hizakurige" which depicts scenes from the Tōkaidō Road. In this particular scene, we witness an amusing spectacle unfolding within the temple's grand hall. One man mischievously holds another by his ankles while pulling him through a large opening in a pillar. The daring act elicits laughter from three other men standing on stone flags nearby. The Great Buddha Hall itself serves as an impressive backdrop to this comical scenario. Its majestic architecture and intricate details are beautifully rendered with vivid colors in this colour woodblock print. The artist's signature, "Hiroshige ga" adds authenticity to the piece. Published by Tsutaya Juzaburo (Koshodo), this artwork showcases both artistic skill and storytelling prowess. It exemplifies Japanese artistry at its finest, combining elements of humor, adventure, and cultural heritage. Now housed at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, this print continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can appreciate and celebrate Japanese art that transcends time and borders.
