Product Information
This evening bridge woodblock print for sale entitled “Senju Bridge by Night” is by Shoda Koho. The Japanese woodblock scene of Ohashi bridge pays homage to the landscape print by ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige from his series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo. The penciled inscription in the matting with incorrect attribution. This woodblock print was part of a series of evening or night images published by Hasegawa known as “Hasegawa’s Night Scenes.” This scene is emblematic of Koho’s work, which was considered part of the Shin-Hanga or “New Prints” style—primarily influenced by European modernism and the impressionist movement.
Dating to the early 20th century circa 1910-1920, this framed woodblock print is a vibrant and richly colored image that presents a series of figures as silhouettes against the watery landscape and the geometry of the architectural elements of the bridge. Lanterns cast dimly light reddish-yellow circles throughout the scene, and the background casts reflections of lights from nearby houses. A wonderful enchanting image for anyone looking for night scene art or evening scenes in Japanese woodblock prints. This work is a brilliant addition for collectors of Japanese woodblock prints or anyone looking for Japanese wall art for their interior decor.
