Eight Views of Kanazawa at Night, 1857. Utagawa Hiroshige (Japanese, 1797-1858). Triptych of color woodblock prints; sheet: 35.6 x 24.8 cm (14 x 9 3/4 in.); overall: 35.6 x 24.8 cm (14 x 9 3/4 in.). Late in his career, Hiroshige explored the poetic theme of setsugekka, snow, moon, and flowers,” in a set of three triptychs. This panoramic scene shows the autumn moon over Kanazawa, near Tokyo. Hiroshige’s contemporaries would have recognized the coastline dotted with villages, fishing boats, and the distinctive double-arched bridge at the bottom right.
