An untitled kakemono generally referred to as the Snow Gorge. Shows the Fuji River flowing between steep, snowy cliffs. The river eventually flows into Suruga Bay. It is known that Hiroshige visited this region in 4/1842 and he probably crossed the Fuji River. Published by Sanoya Kihei, c.1834-4. Rare. Very good impression and colour. Two unidentified ( Japanese? ) collectors’ seals on reverse which slightly show through to front. Ample space for joining. Signed Hiroshige hitsu. Status: Available
