  UTAGAWA HIROSHIGE was a leading ukiyo-e artist of late Edo-period Japan and a pivotal figure in the development of Japanese landscape printmaking. From the 1830s, he devoted himself increasingly to landscape, producing celebrated series including The Fifty-Three Stations of the Tōkaidō, The Sixty-nine Stations of the Kisokaidō and One Hundred Famous Views of Edo. Through bold compositions, elevated viewpoints and subtle bokashi colour gradation, Hiroshige conveyed the poetry of seasons, weather, urban life and nature. His innovative prints were widely received in Europe through Japonisme and influenced a number of Western artists.
  
  TSUKIOKA YOSHITOSHI was one of the last great masters of ukiyo-e, active from the closing years of the Edo period into the Meiji era. Initially acclaimed for dramatic warrior prints and sensational muzan-e, his style gradually evolved toward lyrical historical subjects, elegant bijin-ga, and psychologically expressive compositions. Masterworks such as One Hundred Aspects of the Moon and New Forms of Thirty-six Ghosts demonstrate his remarkable synthesis of narrative power, emotional depth, and technical brilliance, securing his place as a pivotal figure linking traditional ukiyo-e with modern Japanese printmaking.
