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: This is an early evening scene. Only the fastest walkers who left Nihonbashi at dawn would have been able to to find the first lodging here. The signpost next to the stone lantern at the foot of the bridge says ‘The road on the left leads to Kamakura’. In those days there weren’t iron horse shoes, so horses wore straw shoes just like people. Browse thumbnail pages of various selections from the catalogue ...
