  • This triptych is a rare print by Hiroshige. It depicts the Naruto Whirlpools in a majestic panorama. This is one of three rare triptych prints that Hiroshige produced in the Snow, Moon and Flower Series. The photos show the true colors, but the water's blue color is deeper in hand.

    Utagawa Hiroshige or Ando Hiroshige (1797-1858) was a Japanese artist during the 19th century and is considered the last great master of the ukiyo-e movement. His approach was more poetic and ambient than the typical ukiyo-e style, and his innovative compositions were a great influence to Western painters, such as Vincent van Gogh. The term ukiyo-e translates to "pictures of the floating world" and refers to a genre of Japanese art with a wide span of imagery such as kabuki actors, folk tales, landscapes, and even erotica. This movement was critical in forming the Western perception of Japanese art.
