<-March. 21> Great Hiroshige Exhibition
Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) is an ukiyo-e artist, best known
for his land scape series, "The Fifty-three Stations of Tokaido"
and "One-hundred Famous Views of Edo".
Ukiyo-e influenced French Impressionists and they made the Japonism trend
in the 19th century. Even Van Gough copied two of Hiroshige's ukiyo-e
from "One-hundred Famous Views of Edo".
Hiroshige's scenes lead us to nostalgia of old Japan.
