Sixty-odd Provinces by the Mainichi Art Publishing Company - This fine reprint from Hiroshige's "Famous Views of the Sixty-odd Provinces" was published in 1997 by the Mainichi Art Publishing Company of Tokyo as part of a limited edition release of 300 sets. These designs are beautifully printed with fresh, vibrant color and fine detail, including soft bokashi shading.

This set is the most finely printed we have ever seen. The colors are crisp and rich, the detail is outstanding. They represent the highest quality reprints of Hiroshige’s work. Don’t miss limited edition prints, a nice addition to a collection.

Hizen Province, Nagasaki, Mount Inasa - Striking view of Mt. Inasa across Nagasaki Bay, an area famous for its scenic views. The houses dotting the rocky shore among the pine trees comprise the town of Nagasaki, once a sleepy fishing village, which became an important port during the 16th century. A sail jutting up into the image from the bottom of the picture creates a strong counterpart to the mountain above wreathed in clouds shaded with pink and violet. A terrific, dramatic design.
