Item from the Mokuhankan Flea MarketNihonbashi - from the 53 Stations of the Tokaido Size: 27.0cm by 44.0cm (10.63 in by 17.32 in) | Enlargement | Shipping Code: [L] ? Designer: Ando Hiroshige Era: Mid Showa | Currency: $ / £ / € Price:  Description: This is a print from what is perhaps the single most famous series of Japanese woodblock prints ever produced - "The 53 Stations of the Tokaido", designed by Hiroshige in the 1830s. The print you see here is a reproduction version produced in the post-war period by one of the numerous publishing houses working at that time (Adachi, Takamizawa, Yuyudo, Bijutsu-sha, Yamada Shoin, Kyoto Hanga-in, etc.) Here at Mokuhankan we have a wide selection of such prints, far too many to scan and prepare for the website one by one. We don't always have every print in this series in stock, but try to keep as many of them available as possible. The one you see in this photo is on hand, but feel free to contact us about other designs in this series that you don't see on the site ... Image information: Nihonbashi is the starting point of many roads that spread in all directions from central Edo. Most Daimyo processions start at dawn when peddlers are also busy carrying fresh fish and vegetables from nearby markets. The tall feathered poles are symbols of Daimyo processions which apparently walked about 33 kilometers per day. There are slight creases at the right and left margins of this print. There are creases where the paper has been removed from its previous backing - these are exaggerated in the raking light photo here ...
