This is an ukiyo-e reproduction of one of Utagawa Hiroshige's "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo". With a beautiful contrast of red and white, Kinryuzan is the mountain name (title) of Sensoji Temple, and is based on the legend that a golden-scaled dragon descended here. The characters on the lantern read "Shinbashi" and were donated by believers in Shinbashi. All the snow on the screen is rendered using the "kurasuri" technique.

Edo woodblock prints began as simple black prints colored with a brush. These subsequently evolved into tan-e, beni-e, and urushi-e, eventually resulting in a printing technique in which colors were applied directly to the wood, followed by two- and three-color prints (benizuri-e). In 1765, it became possible to print intermediate colors as well as gold and silver, opening the door to multicolor prints.

This is an ukiyo-e reproduction of one of Utagawa Hiroshige's "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo". This is Hiroshige's representative work, which the Dutch painter Van Gogh also tried to copy. The tilted composition captures people passing by in the pouring rain, beautifully expressing their sense of movement. The area came to be called "Atake" because the military ship Ataka-sen was tied up here, and later dismantled and a memorial mound was built there.

This is an ukiyo-e reproduction of one of Hokusai's most well-known works, a part of the Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji. A huge wave is about to crash, splashing away. The small boat seems to be enduring the onslaught of the waves and letting itself go with the current. Hokusai looks as if he were on a similar boat depicting this scene, lowering his gaze and looking up at both the waves and Mt. Fuji, creating a powerful sense of realism.

This is an ukiyo-e reproduction of one of Hokusai's most well-known works, a part of the Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji. It is said that in the early morning of early autumn, Mount Fuji gradually turns red. It turns red as if to powerfully announce the start of the day. In this painting, dawn has just arrived, and herring clouds are spreading across the sky. The summit of Mount Fuji is still dark, conveying the feeling of dawn, but the sunlight is shining on the mountainside, suggesting the start of a clear, sunny day.

This is an ukiyo-e reproduction of one of Hokusai's most well-known works, a part of the Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji. It is said that Umezawa in Sagami is named after Ninomiya Town near Odawara. It looks like a place deep in the mountains, with the area around the towering Mt. Fuji shrouded in mist and not a single house to be seen. The indigo blue color scheme also contributes to the atmosphere of the deep mountains, but the four cranes and the flying cranes on the front make the whole piece very impressive.
