In the first part of this video we’re going to discuss one of the most famous and popular Shin-hanga (New Print) artists Kawase Hasui. In the second part we’ll do a bit of a comparison between Hasui and my favorite landscape artist, Ando Hiroshige. In the early 1900’s Shin-hanga artists took a western influenced painterly approach which was quite different than the previous generations of Ukiyo-e artists. Hasui's style was introspective and reflective, often focusing on the tranquil and serene aspects of landscapes. He masterfully used light and shadow to create atmospheric effects. We will take a look at a couple of his most popular print series. Hiroshige is the OG of landscape prints and although there was a gap of over 40 years between their works, it's interesting (and fun) to do a comparison between the two.
