Frogs and Yamabuki Flowers

Hiroshige Pillar Prints - Lovely Hiroshige design from a group of kacho-e (birds and flowers prints) and landscapes in the rare pillar print format. The long narrow format imposed different restrictions on Hiroshige's compositions, resulting in dynamic and creative depictions of familiar subjects. These charming scenes are nicely detailed and colored, and are a wonderful way to add a touch of nature to any decor. Each print comes tipped into a windowed folder for viewing, enclosed within an outer envelope. A great choice to collect or display.

Comments - Charming Hiroshige nature subject depicting two frogs swimming in a pond with beautiful yamabuki or yellow mountain roses hanging above. The water is beautifully suggested by curving streaks of softly shaded blue. An attractive design. A fine Takamizawa reprint with publisher's seal on reverse.
