The "Memorial Portrait of Ando Hiroshige" is a woodblock print created by Utagawa Kunisada, also known as Toyokuni III, as a tribute to the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Ando Hiroshige following his death. Ando Hiroshige, who passed away in 1858, was a master of the landscape ukiyo-e genre and is best known for his series "The Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō" and "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo." Kunisada, a contemporary and colleague of Hiroshige, was one of the most popular and financially successful designers of ukiyo-e woodblock prints in his time.

The memorial portrait is a poignant homage that captures the essence of Hiroshige's artistic spirit and legacy. In traditional Japanese culture, it was common to honor deceased artists with portraits that celebrated their life and works. Kunisada's portrait of Hiroshige is a testament to the respect and admiration he held for his fellow artist. The print typically features Hiroshige's likeness, often incorporating symbolic elements or references to his artwork, and may include inscriptions or poems that reflect on his contributions to the world of ukiyo-e.

As a work of art, the "Memorial Portrait of Ando Hiroshige" by Utagawa Kunisada stands as a significant piece within the history of Japanese printmaking, offering insight into the relationships between artists of the period and the cultural practices surrounding death and remembrance. It is an important example of how the ukiyo-e community honored its members and preserved their legacies for future generations.
