Published in 1855, the work depicts the coastal station of Oiso. The composition focuses on the Shigitatsu Marsh, a site associated with the poet-monk Saigyo. A small thatched hut sits in the lower left, while the middle ground features a grassy slope dotted with pine trees. Beyond the shore, the sea stretches toward a distant mountain range under a pale sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHiroshige employs a vertical format to organise the space, creating a sense of depth through the layering of foreground elements and the expansive water. The colour palette relies on muted greens for the land, soft blues for the water, and a subtle gradient in the sky. The print demonstrates the artist's ability to capture atmospheric conditions and the specific character of a location. The inclusion of small figures and sailing boats provides a sense of scale and human presence within the natural environment. This series represents a later phase in Hiroshige's career, where he revisited the Tokaido route with a different compositional approach compared to his earlier, more famous horizontal series. The print is a characteristic example of the Ukiyo-e tradition, combining technical precision in woodblock carving with a refined sense of colour and balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/chronicle-of-the-imperial-restoration-tsukioka-yoshitoshi\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eChronicle of the Imperial Restoration - Tsukioka Yoshitoshi — Yoshitoshi\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/young-woman-looking-at-a-pot-of-pinks-suzuki-harunobu\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eYoung Woman Looking at a Pot of Pinks - Suzuki Harunobu — Suzuki Harunobu\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Utagawa Hiroshige","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58953281634639,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58953527427407,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58953527460175,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58953527492943,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58953527525711,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58953527558479,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58953527591247,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58953527624015,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58953527656783,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58953527689551,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58953527722319,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58953527755087,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Oiso_-Saigyo-s-Hut-at-Shigitatsu-Marsh_Poster_CompositorV1_1790731165557.jpg?v=1790733076","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/oiso-saigyos-hut-at-shigitatsu-marsh-utagawa-hiroshige","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
