Created in 1855 by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Hiroshige, this color woodblock print is part of his famous series known as "Famous Sights of the Fifty-three Stations" also referred to as the Vertical Tokaido. The image transports us to Seki, a junction along the pilgrim's road leading to Ise Shrine. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to this historical scene. As we gaze upon it, we can almost feel ourselves walking alongside pilgrims who have embarked on their spiritual quest. Hiroshige's mastery is evident in every brushstroke, capturing not only the physical landscape but also conveying a sense of tranquility and reverence that permeates these sacred grounds.

As we admire this remarkable piece from the Liszt Collection, let us immerse ourselves in its beauty and contemplate the rich cultural heritage it represents—a testament to both Hiroshige's artistic
