"Herfstmaan te Ishiyama" (Autumn Moon at Ishiyama) is a woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige I, created between 1833 and 1837. This ukiyo-e artwork depicts a tranquil scene of a moonlit night in Japan, showcasing the artist's signature use of soft colors and delicate lines. The composition features a prominent full moon against a twilight sky, with a mountain range and a river in the foreground. This piece, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Hiroshige's mastery of capturing the fleeting beauty of nature in a poetic and evocative manner.
