This polychrome print reproduction depicts the bustling commercial street of Suruga-chō under a contrasting sky. The illustration showcases the urban activity of Edo, framed by the imposing facades of the Mitsui textile shops, ancestors of modern department stores.
Originally created in 1856 by Utagawa Hiroshige, this work uses Western linear perspective to guide the eye toward Mount Fuji dominating the horizon. The precision of the shop signs and the historical atmosphere make this plate a major testimony to the late ukiyo-e style.
This iconic view of ancient Japan is ideal for collectors of historical urban landscapes. It allows one to appreciate Hiroshige's graphic rigor and the iconic dimension of Mount Fuji in the Japanese imagination.
