Description: https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/A_1902-0212-0-397-56 This beautiful woodblock print depicts Saruhashi, the famed “Monkey Bridge” of Kai Province, framed by brilliant autumn foliage. The dramatic composition emphasizes the steep cliff faces and the swirling blue river below, creating a striking sense of depth and movement. Delicately rendered maple trees in vivid red and orange signal the peak of autumn, contrasting gracefully with the soft mountain horizon. As one of Japan’s most celebrated historic bridges, Saruhashi has long inspired artists for its unique arched form and scenic gorge. With its rich colors and crisp carving, this print is a vibrant and elegant example of classic landscape imagery, ideal for collectors of Japanese seasonal scenery and traditional woodblock art. Author: Utagawa Hiroshige was one of the last great masters of the ukiyo-e tradition and a leading landscape artist of the Edo period. Renowned for his lyrical depictions of nature, weather, and seasonal change, Hiroshige brought a poetic sensibility to everyday scenery. His celebrated series, such as The Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō and One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, capture fleeting atmospheric moments—rain, mist, and twilight—with subtle color gradations and refined composition. Influencing Western Impressionists like Monet and Van Gogh, Hiroshige’s prints transformed simple landscapes into profound meditations on transience and beauty in the Japanese aesthetic tradition.
