New Fuji, Meguro

Ando Hiroshige's landscape print depicts Mount Fuji across a distant bay, framed by spring cherry blossoms and rolling green hills. Figures dot the composition—some gathered on a promontory, others scattered among flowering trees and along waterways. The print employs Hiroshige's characteristic bold perspective, layering foreground, middle distance, and far shore through shifts in scale and color saturation. Red seals mark the composition's corners. Part of *One Hundred Famous Views of Edo*, this series transformed the woodblock print into a vehicle for atmospheric variation and seasonal specificity, establishing conventions of landscape representation that influenced Western artists and the visual grammar of modern sequential imagery.
