About this artwork

This woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige dates from 1857 and belongs to his series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo. It shows people with umbrellas and straw hats crossing a wooden bridge in heavy rain, while a man poles a raft on the river. It is a ukiyo-e print in the meisho-e tradition, a genre of famous views, made with ink on paper. It is counted among Hiroshige's best known prints.

On your wall: Its rain-swept scene and quiet river setting suit a calm living room, study or hallway, particularly where Japanese art or restrained, natural interiors are already at home.

About Utagawa Hiroshige

Utagawa Hiroshige, born Andō Tokutarō and also known as Andō Hiroshige, was a Japanese artist who worked in the ukiyo-e tradition. He is regarded as the last great master of that tradition, and his name remains closely tied to the form. His prints are a fine way to bring that heritage into a home.
