This serene Slow Art video brings Vincent van Gogh and Utagawa Hiroshige into quiet dialogue. We linger on van Gogh’s Bridge in the Rain and Flowering Plum Tree, painted directly after Hiroshige’s woodblocks but with intensified colors and added calligraphic borders. Through the slow lens, brushstrokes and compositional echoes reveal van Gogh’s transformation of Japanese serenity into his own vivid, expressive world.
