Utagawa Hiroshige

Painted

Medium
Color woodblock print; oban

Perhaps the best-loved of all Hiroshige's prints: three figures walk a hillside road in Kanbara as snow falls at night. The real Kanbara is a mild coastal village, so this heavy snow is Hiroshige's invention. Black sky, white snow and grey roofs meet in three quiet tones.
