Utagawa Hiroshige

Seki, from the series The Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido, c. 1848-49. This print from one of Hiroshige?s later Tokaido series completely reconceives the scene at Seki. An earlier series showed an entourage of a daimyo, preparing to leave an inn, but this view plunges the station into the depths of a dark winter. Daimyo were regional military rulers during Japan?s Edo period. As the central government required them to live in the capital, Edo, in alternating years, daimyo processions along the Tokaido thoroughfare were a frequent sight. This print, however, emphasizes the pilgrimage route to Japan?s principal site of religious worship, the Ise Shrine, indicated by the traditional red gate to the shrine.
