Hiroshige: Master of Japanese Landscapes and the Poetry of Nature

By Mikhail Uspensky and Michail Uspensky

If the lovely 'Land of the Rising Sun' should, during one of those volcanic throes which threaten her extinction, sink forever beneath the depths of ocean, she would still live for us through the magic brush of Hiroshige.

Gazing at his landscapes, our imagination takes us to a land of rain showers and sunsets - a fairy scene, where the rainbow falls to earth, shattered into a thousand prisms - where water softly flows towards the horizon.

Considered as the last Ukiyo-e master, Hiroshige was able to use the richness of colours to offer the viewer a sparkling vision of legendary Japan, thanks to his meticulous descriptions of well-known places.
