Price History
Description
A view of the coastline at Satta with waves crashing on rocks in the foreground, pine trees on the cliff and boats in Suruga Bay. Mount Fuji is in the distance. By nineteenth-century Japanese artist, Hiroshige. This archival giclee print on heavyweight matt-smooth fine art paper, has a cotton core mount, in a handmade and hand-finished sustainably sourced solid ash wood frame. Made in the UK by museum specialists, it's ready to hang on your wall. Utagawa Hiroshige, born Andō Hiroshige (1797-1858), was a nineteenth-century Japanese ukiyo-e artist, specialising in beautiful verticle landscape artwork. He was considered to be one of the last great masters of the colour woodblock printing technique. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I really like this Satta Suruga print for its bold use of blue and its classic, calming landscape scene. It works particularly well in contemporary or minimalist interiors, where its vibrant colour can act as a focal point. To style it effectively, I’d suggest pairing it with neutral-toned furniture and accessories to let the artwork stand out. It also looks great above a sofa or console, with some simple, understated framing or even a slight mat to enhance its presence. This piece adds a touch of Japanese artistry and colour to any room, making it a versatile choice for those looking to introduce a statement artwork with cultural depth.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
