This woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige depicts a large, pale full moon set against a dark background. The moon is obscured by a layer of thin grasses, creating a sense of both beauty and melancholy. The artist, known for his landscapes, captures the ephemeral nature of wind-blown grass and the moonlit night. This ukiyo-e artwork, created in the mid-19th century, exemplifies the beauty of nature and the sublime simplicity of Japanese aesthetics.
