Hiroshige & Eisen by Rhiannon Paget

Hiroshige & Eisen by Rhiannon Paget

This edition reprints Keisai Eisen and Utagawa Hiroshiges legendary series The Sixty-Nine Stations along the Kisokaido, a stunning representation of the historic route between Edo and Kyoto. This vivid tapestry of 19th-century Japan is in equal parts a major artifact of its imperial past and a masterwork of woodblock practice.

“A masterpiece of Japanese woodblock prints, an exquisitely designed illustrated book” * Kulturzeit *
“An incredible ticket to travel.” * L’Express *
“Spectacular views, local delicacies, hot spring baths, and other more carnal pursuits.” * The New York Times *
