Catalog note / 解説

From Hiroshige's series "Ohmi Hakkei no Uchi" ("Eight Scenic Views of Ohmi"), "Seta Yusho". Sunset at Seta. This small and rare series is known as the finest landscape series by Hiroshige. The short poem on the square cartouche complements the serene poetic quality of his design beautifully. The translation from the reference book, "Soft and fitful rain passes far away over the mountains; the evening light streams along the Bridge of Seta." B.Stewart regards this design as the masterpiece in the masterpieces.
