Hiroshige 2018 Wall Calendar
by Hiroshige
Artist Utagawa Hiroshige (Japanese, 1797 1858) was born, lived, and died in Edo (renamed Tokyo in 1868). By the eighteenth century Edo was the world s largest city. During this period, a newly prosperous middle class developed a love for richly colored woodblock prints depicting landscapes, flowers, and scenes of daily life. Hiroshige s extraordinary woodblock-print series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo ranks among the greatest achievements of Japanese art. Issued from 1856 to 1858, the 118 woodblock scenes remain a precious record of the appearance and spirit of Edo at the culmination of more than two centuries of uninterrupted peace and prosperity.

The artist captured these views just a few years after United States naval commander Matthew Perry forced Japan to end two remarkable centuries of seclusion. This calendars twelve prints, selected from Hiroshiges celebrated series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, are a valedictory portrait of a culture about to undergo a rapid transformation.
