Mokuboji Yukimi (Uekiya)|江戸高名会亭尽 木母寺雪見 植木屋|Uekiya Restaurant at Mokuboji is a 1838 ink by Utagawa Hiroshige, a Romanticism work, depicting Tea Hous, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting shows a serene winter scene. In the foreground, a group of people are gathered near a boat, with one person standing and others sitting. They are all dressed in traditional Japanese clothing. In the background, there is a large building with a sloping roof and a bridge spanning a body of water. The sky is gray, and snow is falling gently. The painting features a range of colors, including blues, grays, and browns, which evoke a sense of calmness and tranquility. The use of bold lines and geometric shapes adds to the overall sense of structure and order.
