"Totsuka" (1906) is a woodblock print created by Utagawa Hiroshige (I) (1797-1858). This print depicts a scene from the Tōkaidō Road, one of Japan's most famous travel routes, and belongs to the series *Fifty-Three Stations of the Tōkaidō*. The work captures the bustling atmosphere of a roadside inn, with travelers and locals interacting, while showcasing the scenic landscape of the Japanese countryside. This print is considered a classic example of the *ukiyo-e* genre and is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
