Fishes Swimming with Yellow Flowers 1820 - 1840

"Fishes Swimming with Yellow Flowers" is a woodblock print by the Japanese artist Keisai Eisen, created between 1820 and 1840. The print, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, depicts three fish swimming amongst a vibrant display of yellow flowers. Eisen was known for his exquisite depictions of nature, and this print showcases his mastery of color and detail. The artist's signature and seal appear in the upper right corner of the print, adding an authentic touch to this beautiful work of Japanese art. The use of *ukiyo-e* techniques is evident in this print, a style of Japanese art that often focused on subjects from everyday life, including nature and landscapes.
