This woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige depicts a white rabbit, illuminated by a full moon against a blue night sky. The "Untitled (Two Rabbits, Pampas Grass, and Full Moon)" from 1851 shows the rabbit gazing upwards, while a second, partially hidden rabbit, is seen below. The scene is characteristic of the artist's "ukiyo-e" style, known for capturing the beauty of everyday life and natural elements. It is a quintessential example of Hiroshige's mastery of color and detail, utilizing a limited color palette to create a sense of tranquility and serenity. The print is a testament to the artist's ability to portray the essence of Japanese culture, evoking a sense of wonder and beauty.
