Additional Information Image was scanned from color slide. Utagawa Toyohiro (歌川豊広, 歌川豐廣?), birth name Okajima Tōjiro (1773-1828), was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist and painter. He was a member of the Utagawa school and studied under Utagawa Toyoharu, the school's founder. His works include a number of ukiyo-e landscape series, which paved the way for Hokusai and Hiroshige (who studied under Toyohiro), an important series of ukiyo-e triptychs in collaboration with Toyokuni, and numerous book and e-hon illustrations, which occupied him in his later years. --Wikipedia
