東都名所 真崎雪晴ノ図|Clearing Weather after Snow at Massaki is a 1828 ink by Utagawa Hiroshige, a Romanticism work, depicting Boat, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting depicts a serene winter scene, with two men navigating a small boat along a river. The men wear traditional clothing, including hats and cloaks, and one of them is holding a long pole to steer the boat. In the background, there are several buildings and trees, some of which are covered in snow. The sky above is a soft, pale blue. The painting's use of muted colors and gentle brushstrokes creates a sense of calm and tranquility. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns on the men's clothing and the textures of the trees and buildings. The Metropolitan Museum of Art is home to many works of art that showcase the beauty of nature, including this painting.
Utagawa Hiroshige (歌川 広重) or Andō Hiroshige (安藤 広重), born Andō Tokutarō (安藤 徳太郎; 1797 – 12 October 1858), was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist, considered the last great master of that tradition.
