Catalogue of the Memorial Exhibition of Hiroshige's Work on the 60th Anniversary of His Death was compiled and published by Shozaburo Watanabe (Ukiyoye Association), Tokyo in 1917. An English translation was published as a limited edition of 275 copies in Tokyo in 1918. The book is very rare in the English language edition and since it contains what is probably the most comprehensive catalogue of the works of Hiroshige, an html version is being made available here.
In this edition, accents on the transliterated Japanese words have been omitted due to them not being present in most european character sets. Occasional obvious spelling mistakes and typographical errors have been corrected. Items illustrated in the catalogue are indicated by an asterisk (*) in the margin of the text and these are linked to scans taken from the catalogue. Prints named in the body of the catalogue are linked to images of prints on this site where available.
