東海道五十三次之内 藤澤 遊行寺|Fujiwara; Yugyoji is a 1834 ink by Utagawa Hiroshige, a Romanticism work, depicting Bridge, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting shows a serene landscape with a bridge spanning a river. In the foreground, a group of people are gathered on the bridge, while in the background, a large tree stands tall, surrounded by buildings. The sky above is a warm, gradient yellow. A closer look reveals the intricate details of the scene, with the bridge's wooden planks and the people's traditional clothing adding to the sense of depth and texture. The tree's branches stretch out towards the sky, creating a sense of movement and energy. For more information on this style of art, explore the Romanticism movement.
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.
