Utagawa Hirokage - Japonica Graphic

Utagawa Hirokage

Utagawa Hirokage was a mysterious ukiyo-e artist who suddenly emerged in the final years of the Edo period and disappeared after a brief career of just about two and a half years.Based on his style, he is believed to have been a student of Utagawa Hiroshige.

His best-known work, Edo Meisho Dōke-zukushi, is a series of 50 prints,that comically depict slapstick scenes of commoners set against the famous landmarks of Edo.
