Avond wandeling langs de rivier 1860 - 1862

"Avond wandeling langs de rivier" is a triptych woodblock print by Utagawa Kunisada, also known as Utagawa Kunisada I, depicting three women strolling under a blossoming cherry tree at twilight. The print, dating from 1860-1862, is a beautiful example of the ukiyo-e style, known for its vibrant colors and detailed portrayal of everyday life in Edo-period Japan. The print captures the fleeting beauty of spring, with the delicate cherry blossoms contrasting with the rich hues of the women's kimonos. The composition, divided into three panels, creates a sense of depth and movement, drawing the viewer's eye across the scene. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Netherlands.
