Sudden Shower over Shin Ohashi Bridge and Atake Print.

The Sudden Shower over Shin Ohashi Bridge and Atake Print is based on the original Japanese woodblock print by the famous artist, Hiroshige. Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) is considered to be the last great master of the woodblock print and in the Japan of his day, his prints fostered a new and far-reaching appreciation for nature in art, and in the west, his work influenced artists such as Whistler, Cezanne and Gaughin. He specialised in 'Ukiyo-e', a genre of Japanese art and a collaborative system of printing where the artist, carver, printer, and publisher engaged in division of labour. This fabulous print features people crossing part of the wooden bridge Shin-Ohashi over the Sumida River during a rain shower.

The print is part of the series ‘One Hundred Famous Views of Edo’ which features 119 views of celebrated spots in Tokyo. Printed on a matt 250gsm conservation digital paper, a very versatile high quality paper made with acid and chlorine free wood pulp. The Sudden Shower over Shin Ohashi Bridge and Atake Print is guaranteed to add a touch of Japanese style to your room!
