Additional Information Image was scanned from color slide. Note: Hiroshige's specialty was landscapes. "Utagawa Hiroshige (歌川 広重, 1797 - October 12, 1858) was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist, and one of the last great artists in that tradition. He was also referred to as Andō Hiroshige (安藤 広重) (an irregular combination of family name and art name) and by the art name of Ichiyūsai Hiroshige. … Hiroshige's The Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō (1833-1834) and One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (1856-1858) greatly influenced French Impressionists such as Monet."--Wikipedia.
