"Fujisawa; Yugyôji" is a woodblock print from the *“Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō Road”* series by renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Hiroshige, created between 1833 and 1834. The print showcases the traditional *ukiyo-e* style, depicting a scene of daily life in Japan. The artwork captures the serenity of a small town, featuring a picturesque temple nestled among lush greenery on a hilltop. A prominent *torii* gate, marking the entrance to a Shinto shrine, stands in the foreground, with travelers crossing a bridge. Hiroshige's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the architecture, nature, and the human figures, offering a glimpse into the everyday life and travel during the Edo period.
