Born as Tokutaro Ando into a minor samurai family, his artistic talents went largely unnoticed until his breakthrough series of prints \u003ci\u003eThe 53 Stations of the Tokaido\u003c\/i\u003e (1832-1833). In the series, he captured the popular journey along the Tokaido road--the main road between Edo (modern day Tokyo) and Kyoto. He produced some 8,000 works, which can now be seen throughout the world, including at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Victoria \u0026amp; Albert Museum \u0026amp; the Tokaido Hiroshige Art Museum. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Tuttle Publishing Company\u003c\/b\u003e was established in 1948 in Rutland, Vermont and Tokyo, Japan and is today regarded as a premier publisher and seller of books rooted in Asian culture, language and history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSince its founding in 1948, Tuttle has published more than 6,000 books and today maintains an active backlist of around 2,000 titles. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eToday, Tuttle publishes 150 new titles each year focusing on Asian languages, Asian food \u0026amp; cooking, gardening \u0026amp; flower arranging, crafts \u0026amp; origami, children's books, martial arts, Asian literature, games \u0026amp; graphic novels, Asian history \u0026amp; culture, health \u0026amp; fitness, self-help \u0026amp; Eastern religion, Asian art \u0026amp; collectibles, interior design \u0026amp; architecture, travel guides, maps, and business books. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTuttle products are available in printed formats as well as popular eBook formats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNot available to be shipped via Media Mail\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tuttle Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Other","offer_id":39825891623027,"sku":"9780804854412","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_a7e38e02-240c-4b99-b68b-66453fa4a035.jpg?v=1644539257","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/hiroshige-prints-16-note-cards-16-different-blank-cards-with-17-patterned-envelopes-woodblock-prints-9780804854412","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
