Hiratsuka: Nawatemichi Paths Between Rice Fields, from the series “Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō Highway” (Hoeidō Edition)

Utagawa Hiroshige

解説かいせつ

Utagawa Hiroshige
1833-35

The mountains in the background are distinguishable by their shapes. The towering round peak is Mt. Kōrai, the angled mountain to its right is Mt. Ōyama, and the white distinctive peak of Mt. Fuji peeks out from the side of Mt. Kōrai. As evidenced by the subtitle Nawatemichi Path through Rice Paddies, travelers are coming and going on a path winding between the rice paddies. Hiroshige most likely referenced figures from Jippensha Ikku’s Zoku Hizakurige (Shank’s Mare on the Tōkaidō Highway, Continued), especially the illustrations from Volume IV (see above right), which were based on Kawamura Bunpō’s collection of illustrations, Bunpō Soga (1800) (see above left).
