The format is \u003cem\u003eōtanzaku\u003c\/em\u003e — a tall, narrow panel of about 38 by 17.5 centimetres, the shape used for poem-slips and for pictures meant to hang in the narrow space between two posts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHiroshige is remembered for landscapes, but he made hundreds of bird-and-flower panels like this one, and they are the sheets in which his colour is boldest: a flat teal ground, the pink of the peonies laid on in two strengths, the eyes of the tail feathers printed in a blue that still reads as metal. The poem in the upper left belongs to the design, not to the catalogue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat this is.\u003c\/strong\u003e A giclée reproduction printed with pigment inks.
