Asakusa No Bosetsu (Evening Snow, Asakusa) is a celebrated woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. This artwork is part of Hiroshige's acclaimed series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" (Meisho Edo Hyakkei), which was published between 1856 and 1858. The series captures various scenic spots around Edo (modern-day Tokyo), showcasing the beauty and charm of the city through the changing seasons.

"Evening Snow, Asakusa" depicts a serene winter scene in the Asakusa district, a historically significant area known for its temples, entertainment, and bustling markets. The print masterfully illustrates the tranquil atmosphere of Asakusa under a blanket of snow, with delicate snowflakes falling gently from the sky. The composition features the iconic Senso-ji Temple, one of Tokyo's oldest and most revered Buddhist temples, partially obscured by the snow-laden branches of nearby trees.

Hiroshige's use of color and perspective in this print is particularly noteworthy. The muted palette of whites and grays evokes the quiet stillness of a snowy evening, while the subtle gradations of blue in the sky suggest the fading light of dusk. The artist employs a bird's-eye view, a common technique in ukiyo-e, to provide a sweeping vista of the temple grounds and the surrounding landscape. This perspective not only enhances the sense of depth but also invites viewers to immerse themselves in the tranquil beauty of the scene.

"Evening Snow, Asakusa" exemplifies Hiroshige's ability to capture the ephemeral beauty of nature and urban life in Edo. His meticulous attention to detail and skillful use of color and composition have made this print, along with the entire "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" series, a timeless masterpiece that continues to be celebrated and admired by art enthusiasts and scholars worldwide.
