Kyoto c. 1832 - 1833

"Kyoto" is a woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige, a renowned Japanese artist, from c. 1832-1833. This artwork depicts a bridge spanning a body of water, with a bustling cityscape beyond. The bridge is a focal point, with people crossing it and showcasing the rich detail of the artist's style. The soft, atmospheric hues and the use of perspective give a sense of depth and tranquility. This print is a prime example of Hiroshige's mastery of landscape and cityscapes, highlighting his signature technique of *ukiyo-e*, which was popular during the Edo period in Japan.
