Product ID: 242052653

Description

This stunning Japanese woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige measures approximately 14 1/2 x 9 3/4 inches and features a noticeable vertical centerfold crease running through the middle. The paper exhibits some minor trimming and age-related toning, showcasing the character of early 19th-century printmaking. The corners show slight softness, while colors remain relatively well-preserved. Hiroshige's signature and the Hōeidō publisher's seal authenticate it as an original piece from the famous 'Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō' series (Hōeidō edition) created circa 1833-1834, a highlight of Japanese art history. Don't miss the opportunity to own a remarkable piece of ukiyo-e that combines artistry and historical significance.
