HomeExploreArts & DesignSelected Prints From Hiroshige’s One Hundred Famous Views of Edo
Statistics
Rain drives people across a bridge, a plum branch nearly fills the page, and a white cat watches a festival from above. These selected woodblock prints come from Utagawa Hiroshige’s One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, issued between 1856 and 1858. They follow the seasons through the city now called Tokyo and its outskirts.
