Description
Utagawa Hiroshige (1797 – 1858) was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist, and one of the last great artists in that tradition. Hiroshige is best known for his landscapes, such as the series The Fifty-three Stations of the T?kaid? and The Sixty-nine Stations of the Kiso Kaid?, and for his depictions of birds and flowers. The subjects of his work were atypical of the ukiyo-e genre, whose typical focus was on beautiful women, popular actors, and other scenes of the urban pleasure districts of Japan's Edo period (1603–1868).
