About the work

Light Rain on the Embankment of the Sumida River is a color woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige, dated late 1830s or early 1840s. It belongs to the series A New Selection of Famous Places in Edo. Utagawa Hiroshige (1797–1858) was one of the last great masters of the Japanese woodblock print. His landscapes show weather, light and everyday places along the roads and rivers of Japan, and their bold cropping and flat colour later inspired Van Gogh, Monet and Whistler. The original is in the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art.
