Posted By: Stan Thu, Nov 05, 2015 The artist is Hiroshige I. I believe this is from his series 53 Stations of the Tokaido Road the Hoeido edition. This looks to be a repro. I'll take a closer look when I have time. |

Posted By: Stan Thu, Nov 05, 2015 Your print is a repro of the Oiso Station (#9) from Hiroshige I's series 53 Stations of the Tokaido Road the Hoeido edition. See the link below for an original. Click on the Oiso picture for a bigger picture. |

Posted By: Stan Fri, Nov 06, 2015 That is the definition of a repro. The original was printed in the early 1830s. |

Posted By: Stan Sun, Nov 08, 2015 Also, the original didn't have the red text in the border. If you get that translated, it will likely tell you the publisher and the date it was published. |
