A former castle town situated not too far from Tokyo, Kawagoe is a city where the beauty of historical architecture still remains to this day, and that has been long loved by locals as “Koedo”, or literally “little Edo”, thanks to its deep financial and cultural connections to Edo (ancient Tokyo).

We are proud to announce Vestiges of Edo at Bell Tower, the second of our landscape series Vestiges of Edo that launched in the summer of 2020. Produced in two versions, these landscapes feature Toki no Kane, the iconic Bell Tower of Kawagoe, whose bells have continued to resonate throughout the city for over 400 years.

Both works are aizuri, which is a genre of ukiyo-e that only uses different shades of blue (ai = indigo, zuri = print). In Noon, the pure whiteness of the clouds is enhanced by the contrasting brisk, blue hues, whereas the slight hint of red in Evening conveys a gentle, summer twilight. The fluffy clouds, often found floating in summer skies, are raised in relief to give them a soft yet dynamic finish.


*Attention
- Each work is signed by the artist.
- Each work is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
- Edition numbers will be chosen randomly.
- Each piece is created by hand, therefore, they may all have subtle differences in size and colour between them. For this reason, at UKIYO-E PROJECT every print is considered unique, aligned with the Edo period philosophy that each ukiyo-e is an “original” piece of work.
- They will be packaged and sent in a specially designed, paper folio.
- The artwork is sold unframed.
