About this print
Inside the inset, green mountains overlap one after another, with white cloud hanging over a gray mountain in the back. Below the inset, a man in a navy kimono sits on a wooden stand, and on the right, a woman in a black patterned kimono and a green jacket bends low, holding a long pole in both hands.
Fifty-three Stations by Two Brushes is a series made jointly by two artists, with Hiroshige drawing the landscape in the inset above and Toyokuni III the figures in front. The stretch between the post towns of Odawara and Mishima was long, with steep Mount Hakone in between. So in 1618, 50 households were moved from each of the two towns to set up the post town of Hakone.
