Nagakubo (Station 28) from the series Sixty-Nine Stations of the Kisokaido

Utagawa Hiroshige

Cleveland Museum of Art

Woodblock print, rectangular, showing people and animals on a path by a body of water. A brown donkey with a blue saddle blanket and two large baskets walks on a path to the right. A man wearing a blue robe with a striped top and sandals walks beside the donkey on the right. Two people walk on the path on the left; one wears a pink robe and no shoes and holds a white goat on a leash, beside them walks a brown dog. A tree stands on a raised area beside the path, behind it a large pink building with a tiled roof. A multi-span bridge crosses over the deep blue water; silhouetted people walk across it. Distant mountains beneath a half moon are in the background. The print bears several Japanese characters in black ink and two red seals.
