Hiroshige 広重: Yoroi Ferry, Kaomi-chô (Deluxe First Edition) (SOLD)

This print by Utagawa Hiroshige shows a busy scene on the Nihonbashi River in Edo, featuring storehouses, boats, and passengers.

• The strong cropping of many of the elements is a hallmark of this series, and it somehow also lends the view a modernist touch.
