A special exhibition taking place at the Ehime Museum of Art looks at the works of Hiroshige Utagawa (1797 - 1858), who was considered as one of the great masters of the ukiyo-e artform. Part of the event's focus will be a comparative look at Hiroshige's pieces throughout his lifetime, as well as a comparison with works from European impressionist painters.

In addition, part of the exhibition will look at works covering the themes of snow, flowers, and the moon by some well-known historical figures in the Japanese painting realm, including Utagawa Toyokuni.

Adult admission to the event is priced at 1200 yen.
