Swallows & Peach Blossoms, Hiroshige Japanese Fine ポスター

Utagawa Hiroshige (1797 – October 12, 1858) was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist, and one of the last great artists in that tradition. Legend has it that Hiroshige determined to become a ukiyo-e artist when he saw the prints of his near-contemporary, Hokusai. (Hokusai published some of his greatest prints, such as Thirty-six views of Mount Fuji, in 1832—the year Hiroshige devoted himself full-time to his art.) From then to Hokusai's death in 1849, their landscape works competed for the same customers. Flying Swallows under Peach Blossoms in the Moonlight (Gekka Tsuki ni Tsubame to Momo no Hana), c.1833.
