An exceptional hand-pulled woodblock reproduction of Utagawa Hiroshige’s "Plum Estate, Kameido," Plate No. 30 from the 1857 series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo. This print features the legendary "Sleeping Dragon Plum" (Garyūbai), the most celebrated tree in Edo, known for its unique branches that looped across the ground like a sleeping dragon. Its revolutionary "close-up" perspective famously inspired Vincent van Gogh's own 1887 masterpiece.
Technical Details
Medium: Authentic hand-pulled woodblock print.
Paper: Traditional Handmade Japanese Washi. The fibrous texture of this artisanal paper provides the deep ink saturation and characteristic "bleed-through" seen on the reverse.
Artist: After Utagawa Hiroshige (1797–1858).
Visuals: Features the sophisticated reddish-pink sky and "Bokashi" (color gradation) that Hiroshige pioneered to create atmospheric depth.
Condition Report
Grade: Excellent Vintage Condition.
Details: Colors are exceptionally vibrant with no major fading. The Washi paper shows a uniform, light creamy age-toning typical of a high-quality mid-20th-century vintage edition.
Collector's Note: Part of a curated set of 12 Edo-period subjects. The reverse is clean, free of mounting tape or glue, making it ready for a high-end frame.
