"Two Girls on a Moon-viewing Platform" is one of the less well-known works of Hiroshige Ando (1797-1858), the early-nineteenth-century landscape artist and print-maker who ranks with Hokusai as a master of the art of the Japanese woodblock print. This charming round painting, possibly a fan print, typifies Hiroshige's delightful sense of color and innocent realism.
