Evening on the Chikugo River

Yoshida Hiroshi

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a serene landscape with a river, a bridge, and a building on the left side. The river is wide and calm, with several boats floating on it. A bridge spans the river in the background. The building on the left has a tiled roof and appears to be two stories tall, with lit windows on the second floor. The building's exterior is white with dark trim. A tree branch hangs down from the top of the image, partially obscuring the view of the river and bridge. In the background, there are mountains under a gray sky. The overall atmosphere suggests an evening scene. The color palette is muted, with shades of gray, blue, and yellow. The image has a beige border around it, with Japanese writing on the left side. A small red stamp is located at the bottom right corner of the image.
