1834
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido: Otsu is a 1834 by Utagawa Hiroshige, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a bustling village scene with people and carts in the foreground. In the background, there are trees and buildings, including what appears to be a large house or inn. The artist has used a range of colors to create a sense of depth and atmosphere in the painting. The sky is a soft blue, while the buildings and trees are depicted in earthy tones. The people and carts in the foreground are shown in more vibrant colors, adding a sense of energy and movement to the scene. The painting is held at The Cleveland Museum of Art.
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.
