- Locomotive at Kabe Station, Hiroshima -

The beautiful small woodblock print “Locomotive at Kabe Station, Hiroshima” is by Osamu Ueda (b. 1947). This work depicts locomotives being switched at Kabe Station in Hiroshima Prefecture. These locomotives, which are no longer seen today, evoke a nostalgic Showa-era atmosphere.

Osamu Ueda was born in 1947 in Hiroshima Prefecture. He has an unusual background, having graduated from the Faculty of Dentistry at Hiroshima University. He and his father, Isao Ueda (b. 1924), held an exhibition together at the Kure Municipal Museum of Art. Both father and son are known for their warm artistic style.
