"Hatsune Riding Ground," Hiroshige, 1856.
Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) was the last great master of the ukiyo-e print, an art style that focused on life in urban pleasure districts, often with portraits of beautiful women or famous actors. Hiroshige was somewhat daring in choosing to do a series of landscapes around his home in the city of Edo, now known as Tokyo.
Here we have the Hatsune area, at the city's northern edge, mostly dedicated to lodging visitors. The tower is one of a number of fire watchtowers around the city, and the huge bolts of cloth are not triumphal banners, but simply freshly dyed textiles hung out to dry. The overall effect is of a typical day in the city, a different approach for ukiyo-e.
This is part of a series of woodcuts called "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" and can be found online. They're at all times of the day and the year, at all occasions, but provide a fascinating glimpse into 19th century Japanese life.
His work was a huge influence on Western artists like Van Gogh and the Impressionists, and his work is still loved today in Japan.
From the Brooklyn Museum.

The waves in *The Whirlpools of Awa* coil like ink on wet paper, their edges bleeding into the void above. Hiroshige’s calligraphy anchors the chaos, suggesting nature’s fleeting order.
Does the shoreline’s faint outline pull the eye outward—or deeper into the vortex?

I've been teaching myself Japanese woodblock printing - "mokuhanga" - for a bit now, so it might be interesting to post something of my attempts.
My current print is the 'Fuchū' vignette taken from panel 6 of #Hiroshige's 'harimaz-e' series, Pictures of the Fifty-three Stations of the #Tokaido (with slightly modified border proportions to fit the block size).
Nice and simple 🤨
First step: make a digital copy, separating each colour onto its own layer.
