This woodblock print, "The Miya Station," is a work by the prolific Japanese artist Utagawa Hiroshige. Hiroshige is known for his beautiful landscapes, depicting scenes from everyday life, particularly the "Tokaido Road" series. In this print, however, the focus is on the figure of a warrior, likely an actor in a play or Kabuki performance, as indicated by his stylized makeup and elaborate costume. The use of bold colors and strong lines conveys the dynamism of the subject and the vibrancy of the theatrical performance.
