諸国六玉河 陸奥 野田の玉川|Mutsu, Noda no Tamagawa is a 1833 ink by Utagawa Hiroshige, a Romanticism work, depicting Mountain, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This print shows three people walking along a riverbank under a big mountain. The water is dotted with little white birds, and the sky is soft and pale. Two travelers carry bags, while a man in a wide-brimmed hat walks ahead, pointing or gesturing. The mountain in the background is labeled with Japanese text, and the scene looks calm and peaceful. The artist used simple lines and flat colors to create a quiet, everyday moment. Look up Utagawa Hiroshige to see more prints like this one.
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.
