| This is the most influential art guide ever made!
It inspired great artists like Whistler, Van Gogh, Degas, Monet and Manet, to name a few.
This is the original experience!
It is also a handy tour guide to Tokyo with great historical perspective.
Visit Edo, modern day Tokyo, as experienced by Utagawa Hiroshige in this wonderful tourist guide from the 1850s.
Experience Edo as the Japanese loved it, a sophisticated city catering to a wealthy elite of daimy¿, local rulers that regularly had to spend time away from their lands, in Edo, where the shogun could keep an eye on them.
The 100 Famous Views of Edo was one of the popular print series made in Japan, like Hokusai's series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, which had been published earlier in the 1830s and which influenced Hiroshige tremendously (author's ISBN 9781956215243).
But much more important is the influence the 100 Famous Views of Edo had on European impressionists like Van Gogh, Degas, Manet and Monet. Hiroshige impressed with cropped items to create focus and with his horizontal format. |
