The highest peak of landscape painting is Hiroshige Utagawa, an ukiyo-e artist from the late Edo period, depicting the masterpiece "53rd Tokaido".
His gentle style of painting softens the mind of what he sees.
More than 150 years after his death.
On a peaceful Sunday in June, today's Hiroshige appears here on Tsukuda Island.
Tsukuda Kobashi, Funadamari, Tsukuda Park.
This downtown appearance will touch the koto line of Sunday painters. I'm quietly talking with my favorite painting book with my desired touch.
Watching Hiroshige on Tsukuda Island carrying brushes on a day of the sun, this space is separated from other hustle and bustle, and it seems that time flows slowly there.
The surrounding area has completely changed with ultra-high-rise apartments.
This area, which retains the remnants of the Showa era and invites nostalgia, does not seem to release the hearts of landscape painters on holidays.
