Ando Hiroshige Book Design

The Japanese painter and printmaker Ando Hiroshige (1797-1858) is considered one of the six great masters of the Ukiyo-e school. He is most famous for his landscape prints, which render typically Japanese landscapes in their different moods in a very poetic manner. In the following work, I used an essay I wrote on the artist and designed a minimalistic book that spotlights some of his most famous pieces.
