This picture of the grounds of the Kameido Tenjin Shrine has vivid blues and greens. The arched bridge depicts people enjoying the day. Wisteria tendrils fall in front of the Kameido Tenjin shrine. This piece is one of the lesser known works of the prolific artist Utagawa Hiroshige. Hiroshige was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist, and one of the last great artists in that tradition. He was also referred to as Ando Hiroshige (an irregular combination of family name and art name) and by the art name of Ichiyusai Hiroshige, Hiroshige was born in 1797 and named "Ando Tokutaro" in the Yayosu barracks, just east of Edo Castle in the Yaesu area of Edo (present-day Tokyo). His father was Ando Genemon, a hereditary retainer (of the doshin rank) of the shogun.Feature
