Woodblock print (reprint) , Published by Bijutsusha (54) - Paper - Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) - "Tôkaidô gojûsan tsugi no uchi" 東海道五十三次之内 (Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido Road) (First or Great Tokaido) - Japan - ca 1965 Glue is pasted on the back of the woodblock print and it sticks to the paper. 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. 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
