This Ukiyo-e has holes and folds
This series of works is the “Fifty-three Meisho Zue” produced by Hiroshige Utagawa in 1855 (Ansei 2 pariod) as the last Tokaido series.
This type of ukiyo-e was often drawn in landscape orientation, but it is drawn in portrait orientation so that you can see the whole thing.
This work is the 37st work of the “(Famous Places of the 53 stations of the TOKAIDO, thirty seven”.
Hiroshige’s work came to have a marked influence on Western painting towards the close of the 19th century as a part of the trend in Japonism.
Western artists closely studied Hiroshige’s compositions, and some, such as van Gogh, painted copies of Hiroshige’s prints
