Paintings by Utagawa Hiroshige, 1797 – 12 October 1858, master of the ukiyo-e genre
Hiroshige's work came to have a marked influence on Western painting towards the close of the 19th century as a part of the trend in Japonism. Western artists closely studied Hiroshige's compositions, and some, such as van Gogh, painted copies of Hiroshige's prints.
