Description:
This poetic Japanese woodblock print depicts the Tama River flowing calmly beneath a luminous rainbow, with Mount Fuji rising quietly in the distance. Gentle pastel tones evoke a serene atmosphere, while the broad riverbanks, small boats, and figures crossing a simple wooden bridge suggest the rhythm of everyday life in the Edo period. Willow trees bend softly along the shore, adding movement and grace to the composition. The rainbow arching across the sky introduces a rare and hopeful moment, contrasting with the stillness of the landscape. Balancing nature, humanity, and seasonal mood, this scene reflects the refined sensitivity characteristic of classic ukiyo-e landscapes.
Author:
Utagawa Hiroshige 歌川 広重 (1797 – 12 October 1858), was a Japanese Ukiyo-e artist, considered the last great master of that tradition. Hiroshige is best known for his horizontal-format landscape series The Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō and for his vertical-format landscape series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo. The subjects of his work were atypical of the ukiyo-e genre, whose typical focus was on beautiful women, popular actors, and other scenes of the urban pleasure districts of Japan's Edo period (1603–1868).
Kodama Matashichi was a Meiji-period ukiyo-e publisher based in Nihonbashi, Tokyo. He is known for producing works by artists such as Yamazaki Toshinobu, Yōshū Chikanobu, and Kobayashi Kiyochika. Kodama’s publications include landscapes, beauty prints, and war triptychs, notable for their refined printing and delicate color gradations. His collaborations with Toshinobu on the Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji exemplify the high craftsmanship and transitional aesthetic between traditional ukiyo-e and the emerging Meiji modern style.
