Untitled is a 1847 ink by Utagawa Hiroshige, a Romanticism work, depicting Flower, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This print shows bright blue-green leaves and a big red flower with a yellow center. Two butterflies are flying near the plant. The background is a soft, pale blue sky. There’s also some Japanese writing along the top and sides. The artist used simple lines to make the leaves look thick and textured. The red flower stands out against the green leaves.
