About this artwork

This colour woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige shows a wooden bridge at the moment a shower breaks. Those crossing do what they can to keep dry, sheltering under umbrellas, a large hat or a straw mat. Below, a man pushes a raft of logs along the river. It belongs to a series of views of Edo and was made as a nishiki-e print, with a black key block and separate blocks for the colours. The block was cut by Fujiwara hori and the print was published by Kodama Matashichi. It is dated 1 September 1891.

On your wall: Its quiet everyday scene and the river setting suit a hallway, study or living room, especially where Japanese prints or calm, understated decor 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.
