Sailboats cross a wide estuary beneath a distant Fuji

An elevated view looks down a wide river estuary where white-sailed boats cross calm blue water lined with sandbars and reed banks. A small, snow-capped Mount Fuji rises pale on the horizon beneath a band of deep pink sky. Pine trees and a small group of figures stand on the green foreground bluff, and autumn-toned shrubs cling to the near bank.

Utagawa Hiroshige (1797–1858) was the last great master of the ukiyo-e landscape print. Born into a family of fire wardens in Edo, he turned to printmaking under Utagawa Toyohiro and found his subject in the roads and seasons of Japan — above all in the Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō (1833–34) and the One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (1856–58). His snow, rain and evening skies, and his bold near-and-far compositions, were studied closely by Van Gogh, Whistler and Monet. His prints are held by the British Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
