When he was born in 1826, no one could have imagined the footsteps he would follow and the legends he would perpetuate. Deeply rooted in the golden age of ukiyo-e art, he adopted not only the artistic style but also the famous name of his master, Hiroshige. This happened after the latter's passing in 1858, and Hiroshige II further sealed this union by marrying Hiroshige's daughter.
During his early creative years, his work so faithfully reflected the delicate signature of his master that even scholars often confused them. Thus, with art prints of this era, it is sometimes difficult to decide whether they are from the hand of Hiroshige or Hiroshige II. This shows the immense talent of Hiroshige II, who was able to create such impressive works that so resembled his mentor. However, despite these similarities, he also stamped an individual touch on his works. After the dissolution of his marriage, in 1865, he moved from Edo to Yokohama, adapting the sonorous name Kisai Risshō. During these years, he collaborated with other grand masters such as Kunisada and also devoted himself to decorating export items, a sign of his adaptability and broad artistic range.
Despite his early death at only 44 in 1869, Hiroshige II left a legacy that is still alive today in the art prints reproduced by our company. These reproduced art prints attempt to do justice to his genius and keep the golden age of ukiyo-e art alive for generations to come. It is fascinating to consider that while Hiroshige III, another disciple of the great Hiroshige, also went his own way, it was Hiroshige II who most forcefully recalled the brilliance and intricacies of the original Hiroshige.
