A vintage reproduction print of antique Ukiyo-e woodblock print by Utagawa Hiroshige, from his series, "The Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō Road". Forty-Second Station: Kuwana. In the title block: "The entrance to the seven-league crossing". After leaving Miya and crossing the "seven-league gulf" the boats lower their sails to enter the estuary of the Ibi River. On the right, we see the castle of the Matsudaira lords. This reproduction print is not a woodblock reproduction, but offset, full-color print. Detailed. Comes from a rare art folio published by Editions du Credit Lyonnais in Paris, France, in 1960. Printed in France, on one side of high quality heavy paper. Blank back, numbered on the back: XLIII. Nearly excellent condition - minor edge wear, it was pinned in the past, two tiny holes very close to the top corners were smoothed and are barely visible, never framed.
