Winter Landscape 1790 - 1848

"Winter Landscape" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Keisai Eisen. Created between 1790 and 1848, the print showcases Eisen's mastery of the ukiyo-e style. The composition features a serene winter scene with a small village nestled amongst snow-covered hills, a lone boat gliding across the water, and a distant view of a calm sea. The blue and white color scheme emphasizes the wintry atmosphere and adds a sense of tranquility to the scene. This print, now held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, offers a glimpse into the beauty of everyday life in Edo-period Japan.
