Painting Description
"Neige Sur Le Mont Hira" (Snow on Mount Hira), also known as "Hira no bosetsu" in Japanese, is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. Created during the Edo period, this print is part of Hiroshige's famous series "Eight Views of Ōmi" (Ōmi Hakkei no Uchi), which was produced in the 1830s. The series illustrates scenic views of Lake Biwa in Ōmi Province (present-day Shiga Prefecture) and is based on the classic theme of "Eight Views," which originated in Chinese landscape painting and poetry.
In "Neige Sur Le Mont Hira," Hiroshige captures the tranquil beauty of a snow-covered landscape. The composition features Mount Hira blanketed in snow, with the serene expanse of Lake Biwa in the foreground. The print is characterized by its use of atmospheric perspective and subtle gradations of color, which were innovative techniques at the time and contributed to the evocative mood of the scene. The series, including this print, exemplifies Hiroshige's mastery of landscape art and his ability to convey a sense of place and season.
Hiroshige's work had a significant influence on Western art, particularly on the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist movements, as his prints were among the Japanese artworks that became popular in Europe in the late 19th century. "Neige Sur Le Mont Hira" is not only a fine example of Hiroshige's artistry but also an important piece in the cross-cultural exchange between Japan and the West. Today, the print is highly regarded for its aesthetic qualities and historical value, and it can be found in various art collections, museums, and institutions around the world.
