Hiroshige - 53 Stations of the Tokaido - Print 33

33 Shirasuka - View out to sea through a dip in the hill, at the foot of which a daimyo's procession is passing; clumps of trees to right and left. The view of the seascape from Shiomizaka Slope near this station was one of the most picturesque of all the fifty-three stations, with the blue Pacific Ocean framed by outreaching branches of pine trees. A long procession of a feudal lord descends the hill towards Shirasuka Station.Utagawa Hiroshige (1797 - 1858). The Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido - Hoeido edition (1831-4)
