Utagawa Hiroshige New Years Eve Foxfires Print Night Kitsune Fire Woodblock
Hiroshige’s magical New Year’s Eve foxfire scene — ghostly flames beneath a great tree on a dark winter night. A mystical jewel of Edo ukiyo-e.
Description
Hiroshige's famous 'New Year's Eve Foxfires' shows a haunting winter night: foxes with ghostly blue-white flames gathering beneath a great tree, from his 'One Hundred Famous Views of Edo' series. The deep greens and blacks, with red signature seals, give the scene an unforgettable mystical glow. A spellbinding piece for a study or living room, and a wonderful gift for Japanophiles and ukiyo-e collectors.
