EDITORS COMMENTS
This color woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige transports us to the serene shores of Susaki during low tide. Titled "Gathering Shellfish at Low Tide at Susaki (Susaki shiohigari)" this piece is part of Hiroshige's renowned series, Famous Places in Edo (Koto meisho), created between 1832 and 1834. The scene depicts a group of individuals engaged in the ancient practice of shellfish gathering. As the water recedes, revealing a vast expanse of wet sand, these figures diligently search for their bounty along the shoreline. The artist masterfully captures their graceful movements and meticulous attention to detail as they collect shells and other treasures from the sea. Hiroshige's skillful use of vibrant colors brings life to every element within this composition. From the soft hues reflecting off distant mountains to the rich blues that mirror both sky and ocean, each shade harmoniously blends together, creating a sense of tranquility that permeates throughout. Measuring approximately 25 x 38 cm (9 13/16 x 14 15/16 in. ), this oban-sized print showcases Hiroshige's ability to capture nature's beauty with precision and elegance. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as one of Japan's most celebrated ukiyo-e artists. As we gaze upon this exquisite artwork from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in an era where
