Ryogoku, Hanabi (Fireworks, Ryogoku) 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 famous 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 vibrancy of the city during the Edo period.

The print "Ryogoku, Hanabi" specifically depicts a lively summer evening at the Ryogoku Bridge, a well-known location in Edo. The scene is illuminated by a spectacular fireworks display, a popular form of entertainment during the Edo period. The Ryogoku Bridge, spanning the Sumida River, was a bustling hub of activity, especially during the summer months when fireworks festivals were held. These festivals attracted large crowds who gathered on the bridge and along the riverbanks to enjoy the dazzling pyrotechnic shows.

Hiroshige's masterful use of color and composition in "Ryogoku, Hanabi" captures the festive atmosphere and the sense of community among the spectators. The print features a dynamic contrast between the dark night sky and the bright, colorful bursts of fireworks, reflecting in the calm waters of the Sumida River below. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the people, boats, and architectural elements, all rendered with a delicate and precise touch.

This work is a testament to Hiroshige's ability to convey the ephemeral beauty of nature and urban life through his prints. "Ryogoku, Hanabi" not only serves as an artistic representation of a specific moment in time but also provides valuable insight into the cultural and social practices of the Edo period. As one of the iconic images from the "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" series, it continues to be celebrated for its aesthetic appeal and historical significance.
