解説 |
Artist: Utagawa Hiroshige II Production date: 1865 (Keio 1) Yui: Satsuta Pass The Satta (Written as Satsuta in Japanese) Pass was located between Yui post station and Okitsu post stations. In the picture, the tide is receded and people are walking on the beach. Since it is difficult to walk on the beach at the time of high tide, a pass to go over the mountain was also prepared. It is said the view of Mt. Fuji from Satta Pass was magnificent. The artist seal of this series is “Ryushou-ga (Picture by Ryushou)” and Ryushou is the name of Utagawa Hiroshige II. After Hiroshige I died in 1859, his pupil Shigenobu succeeded Hiroshige’s name and became Hiroshige II. Later, he succeeded the Hirosige I’s style in his work but by 1865, he changed artist name as Ryushou. “Fifty-three Stations of Toukaidou” was published in the year he changed his name and the series consisted of 56 works. |
