A woodblock print by Hiroshige, 'Alighting Geese at Massaki' captures a tranquil waterscape with boats, a torii gate, and geese descending towards the water, all within a fan-shaped border.
This print, attributed to Hiroshige (1797-1858), is a woodblock print in the ukiyo-e style. The composition is presented within a fan-shaped border, a common format for smaller, more informal prints. The scene depicts Massaki, a location known for its scenic views. The artwork shows a tranquil waterscape with several boats sailing on the water. In the background, a torii gate stands prominently, marking the entrance to a Shinto shrine, with houses clustered nearby. A flock of geese is seen descending towards the water, adding a sense of movement to the otherwise still scene. The foreground features stone lanterns, which line the shore and provide a sense of depth. The colour palette is dominated by blues, creams, and soft oranges, creating a serene and atmospheric effect. Calligraphic text is visible in the corners of the fan shape, likely providing additional context or poetic commentary on the scene. The print captures a moment of everyday life within a specific geographical setting, reflecting the ukiyo-e tradition of depicting the 'floating world'.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
