Pale turquoise and grey-green step the river into layers, while a cream moon provides the single bright point that draws the eye. An arched bridge crosses the lower field of the image, and a fan-shaped cartouche holds the inscription \u003cem\u003e東都三十六景\u003c\/em\u003e, which identifies the piece as part of the Thirty-Six Views of the Eastern Capital series. The blossoming tree and the figures sit close together, so the composition reads as calm and balanced rather than crowded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSumidagawa, Mimeguri refers to the Sumida River and the Mimeguri area on its banks, a landscape that was central to Edo-period culture and remains a landmark of Japanese cultural geography. The full moon, the blossoms and the figures under the tree express the seasonal appreciation of spring evenings that runs through ukiyo-e. Dated to the third month of the dragon year 1868, the print sits at the turn from the Edo to the Meiji era, when this style of printed landscape was carrying its traditions forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere This Sticker Lives\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut to the outline of the riverbank, the moon and the tree, this decal shows the whole scene as a single shape rather than a framed rectangle. It suits the smooth, flat surfaces it is made for: laptop lids, journal covers and window glass, where the moonlit blues can be seen against whatever sits behind them. For collectors of Hiroshige, it turns a favourite landscape into an object that travels with them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Sticker Space","offers":[{"title":"2\" × 2\" \/ Transparent","offer_id":48289759559898,"sku":"TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-2X2-807","price":2.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2\" × 2\" \/ White","offer_id":48289759592666,"sku":"TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-2X2-808","price":2.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\" × 3\" \/ Transparent","offer_id":48289759625434,"sku":"TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-3X3-807","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\" × 3\" \/ White","offer_id":48289759658202,"sku":"TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-3X3-808","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4\" × 4\" \/ Transparent","offer_id":48289759690970,"sku":"TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-4X4-807","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4\" × 4\" \/ White","offer_id":48289759723738,"sku":"TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-4X4-808","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\" × 6\" \/ Transparent","offer_id":48289759756506,"sku":"TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-6X6-807","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\" × 6\" \/ White","offer_id":48289759789274,"sku":"TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-6X6-808","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0493\/3949\/8646\/files\/utagawa-hiroshige-sumidagawa-mimeguri-3rd-month-dragon-year-1868-sticker-vinyl-kiss-cut-decal-TSS-STICK-TGWHRS-2X2-808-alt-3.webp?v=1785650807","url":"https:\/\/thestickerspace.com\/products\/utagawa-hiroshige-sumidagawa-mimeguri-3rd-month-dragon-year-1868-sticker-vinyl-kiss-cut-decal","provider":"The Sticker Space","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
