月夜のみみずく, 広重 Moonlight Owl, Hiroshige, Ukiyo-e Poster

歌川広重 Utagawa Hiroshige Utagawa Hiroshige (1797 – October 12, 1858) was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist, and one of the last great artists in that tradition. He was also referred to as Andō Hiroshige (an irregular combination of family name and art name) and by the art name of Ichiyūsai Hiroshige. An evaluation is high in the work of Hiroshige Utagawa with beauty of blue particularly the indigo blue with bold composition in Europe and U.S.A. This bright blue is a colour of the indigo plant (indigo) and I liken it to "Japan blue" or Vermeer blue (lapis lazuli) in Europe and America and am called "the Hiroshige blue". It is said that the Hiroshige blue had a big influence on painters of the Impressionists which rose from France of the late 19th century and artists of the are nouveau and is done with one of the factors that laid the fashion of the Japonisme in those days.

Hiroshige's owl is perhaps his most famous Kacho-e (flowers and birds print). The poem in the picture speaks of him sailing on the almost-new-moon and listening for pine-tree music. Not all are as good as this one. The moon is important in this picture, and one can see it in this version of the print. I bought three copies, one to frame for myself and two more for friends.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame. This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again. One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up. Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font. Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
