This woodblock print titled "Fujieda, 1840-42" by Hiroshige, Ando or Utagawa takes us on a journey to rural Japan in the 19th century. Measuring at 17x22.5 cm, this artwork is housed in The McManus museum in Dundee, UK. The scene depicted showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of Japanese artistry and offers a glimpse into daily life during that era. The print features a picturesque landscape with a river flowing through it, surrounded by quaint villages and towns. Wooden bridges connect these settlements, allowing people to traverse across the waterways. Intriguingly, we witness men diligently working and wading through the river while carrying others piggyback style.

Hiroshige's masterful use of color and composition transports viewers back in time while evoking feelings of tranquility and nostalgia.
