Kunisada Project
In around 1838, Kunisada produced a series of The Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido Road that
featured figures of a women in front of a landscape related to the station of the Tokaido. The background landscapes
were largely copied from Hiroshige's Great Tokaido.
Both sets of prints are presented here for comparison.
