江戸名所 御茶之水|Ochanomizu is a 11 ink by Utagawa Hiroshige, depicting Boat, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This woodblock print shows a serene winter scene. In the foreground, three women walk along a snowy path, their colorful kimonos contrasting with the monochrome landscape. One woman holds a parasol, while another carries a basket. A man in the distance walks toward them. The path leads to a bridge spanning a river, where a boat glides through the water. Snow-covered trees line the riverbanks, and a few buildings are visible in the background. The print's muted colors and delicate lines evoke a sense of tranquility. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns on the women's kimonos and the texture of the snow. To explore more works by this artist, look up Utagawa Hiroshige.
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.
