Eijiri 1906

"Eijiri" is a woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige (I), created in 1906. This ukiyo-e print is part of the "Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō Road" series, depicting the journey along the historic road between Edo (present-day Tokyo) and Kyoto. The print showcases a detailed and scenic view of Eijiri, with numerous ships in a harbor, mountains in the distance, and a light-filled sky, capturing the essence of a bustling port town. This print, now in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of Hiroshige's ability to capture the beauty and detail of Japan's landscape.
