UKIYO-E JAPANESE ART
GREETING CARD
WITH ENVELOPE

A Christmas greeting card with a ukiyo-e print of outstanding beauty, chosen and printed with love 。.:*♡
Complementary classic haiku calligraphy on the back of the card.

"An Elegant Genji in Snow" (風流源氏雪の眺) by Utagawa Hiroshige, Utagawa Kunisada, 1853

This print should be called "an impossibly elegant Genji in snow ". The protagonist, in his as-always-stunning attire, turns his flawless face to the snowy garden scene. The three little birds fluttering in the air add the balance masterstroke for the eye moving from the beautiful figure to the snowy landscape behind it.
It truly takes a combined work of TWO (!) masters of ukiyo-e, Utagawa Hiroshige and Utagawa Kunisada, to create this level of beauty ✨

Haiku calligraphy on the back of the card:

"The snow we once
Looked at together -
Has it fallen anew this year?"

Matsuo Basho (1644-1694)

♡ (Card code for the mix: P06 )
