The print showcases a torii gate in the foreground, leading to a busy village scene with travelers and locals, set against a backdrop of traditional Japanese architecture and lush greenery. History of Woodblock Prints: Japanese woodblock printing, or ukiyo-e, flourished during the Edo period (1603-1868). These prints were popular for their depictions of landscapes, tales of the kabuki theater, and scenes of the everyday life of the Edo period. Hiroshige was a prolific artist of the ukiyo-e genre, celebrated for his series depicting the fifty-three stations of the Tōkaidō Road, the route between Edo (modern-day Tokyo) and Kyoto. Translation of the Text: The Japanese text on the print reads: • 東海道 五拾三次之内 藤沢 (Tōkaidō Gojūsan-tsugi no uchi Fujisawa) • Which translates to “Fujisawa Station, one of the fifty-three stations of the Tōkaidō Road.”
