About this work

Artist: Utagawa Hiroshige (1797–1858)
Year: 1856
Medium: Woodblock print; ink and color on paper
Original size: approx. 36 × 24 cm (ōban)
Collection: National Diet Library, Tokyo (impression pid 1303220; many other impressions exist)
Movement: Ukiyo-e
Series: One Hundred Famous Views of Edo

Clouds of pink and white blossom fill the lower half of the sheet, with visitors seated at teahouse benches among the trees and a pond in the foreground. Above, a band of red mist parts to show the buildings of a flower park on a wooded hill. The print is number sixteen in One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, published by Uoya Eikichi, with a censor's seal of the fifth month of 1856. Sendagi's Dangozaka slope was known for its flower gardens, which drew crowds of visitors out from the city. The bands of red bokashi mist are a device Hiroshige uses throughout the series to separate near and far; impressions vary in colour and condition.

This exhibition-poster edition shows the whole work beneath original typography set in-house. The original is in the public domain.

Where it works

Drifts of blossom pink beneath deep green trees and red mist, for a bedroom, dining room or entrance hall at 16×24 in natural wood. It pairs with View to the North from Asukayama for two spring outings.

Size. We'd hang this one at 16×24. Prints at 12×18, 16×24, 24×36 in — 12×18 for a shelf, desk or a gallery-wall grid; 16×24 above a desk, console or in a hallway; 24×36 as the statement piece above a sofa or bed.

Framing. Exhibition posters sit best in a slim black frame with no mat — the typeset margin is the mat.

Is this the whole painting, or a crop?

The whole work, uncropped. The exhibition-poster edition sets the complete image above typography designed in-house.

Is Flower Park and Dangozaka Slope in Sendagi in the public domain?

Yes. Utagawa Hiroshige (1797–1858) died more than 70 years ago and the work was published before 1929, so the painting itself is public domain. This print is a reproduction made from a high-resolution scan of the original, which is held by National Diet Library.

What is it printed on?

Heavyweight matte fine-art paper with pigment inks, made to order in 12×18, 16×24 and 24×36 inches; every size is also offered framed in black or natural wood, with plexiglass and no mat. Colours are matched to the scan, not brightened.

When was Flower Park and Dangozaka Slope in Sendagi painted, and in what medium?

Flower Park and Dangozaka Slope in Sendagi dates from 1856 and was made in woodblock print; ink and color on paper; the original measures approx. 36 × 24 cm (ōban).

What size works above a sofa or bed?

Across a three-seat sofa or a queen bed, 24×36 is the size that reads as one statement piece; 16×24 suits a narrower wall or a pair. For Flower Park and Dangozaka Slope in Sendagi we'd choose 16×24.
