This colour woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige was made in 1857, in the second month by the old calendar. It is number 14 in his series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, and its title points us to the gardens of the temples at Nippori. The image measures roughly 34 by 22 centimetres. Hiroshige is remembered as the last great master of the ukiyo-e tradition, and this print shows his approach to a named place within a larger series of views.
On your wall: Its garden subject and Japanese print character suit a study, hallway, or quiet living space, especially where you want a calm, considered touch.

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.
