亜米利加・南京|An American on Horseback and a Chinese with a Furled Umbrella is a 12 ink by Utagawa Yoshiiku, a Impressionism work, depicting Horse, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This print shows a man riding a brown horse down a street, dressed in a dark coat and hat. Beside him, a person in traditional robes holds a furled umbrella. The background has simple buildings with tiled roofs and a bright blue sky. Japanese text runs along the top, and red signs hang near the riders. The scene looks like it’s from a busy city, but the artist kept the details simple. The horse’s muscles are drawn with bold lines, making it look strong and fast.
