Utagawa Hiroshige is one of the most overlooked figures in Western art history. Hiroshige's art hit Europe in the late 19th century like a hurricane of vibrant color, inspiring some of the most influential artists to ever live. The impact of Hiroshige's art can be seen in the works of Monet, Whistler, Degas, Tissot, Cassat, Toulouse-Lautrec, Gauguin, Bonnard, Klimt, Manet, Childe, and perhaps most profoundly Van Gogh. This video is meant to guide you to a sense gratitude and understanding for works of one of the greatest Japanese artists to ever pick up the brush. The first segments will teach you about why Hiroshige is so special and the last segment will show you his masterpiece “100 Famous Views of Edo“ The book that inspired me to make this video: Chapters: 0:00 The Van Gogh Easter egg 3:19 European Impact 5:00 History of Edo Japan 8:57 Hiroshige: Life & Legacy 12:00 Guide to Appreciation 14:17 Art Showcase: “100 Famous Views of Edo“ Sources: Hiroshige “100 Famous Views of Edo“: The Met: Van Gogh Museum: #0
