"Fishing for Bonito Tosa Province from Famous Places of the Sixty Provinces" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. Created in 1853, this artwork is part of Hiroshige's larger series "Famous Places of the Sixty Provinces," which comprises prints depicting various landscapes and scenes from each of the sixty provinces of Japan as they existed in the Edo period. The series is celebrated for its artistic and historical significance, showcasing Hiroshige's mastery in capturing the essence of each locale with distinct aesthetic and atmospheric qualities.

The print "Fishing for Bonito Tosa Province" specifically portrays the coastal activities in the Tosa Province, modern-day Kochi Prefecture. It vividly illustrates the traditional fishing methods used to catch bonito, a popular fish in Japanese cuisine. The composition focuses on the dynamic interaction between the fishermen and the sea, set against a backdrop that suggests the broader environmental and cultural context of Tosa. Hiroshige's use of color and perspective not only highlights the main action but also envelops the viewer in the scenic beauty and the rhythmic life of the coastal community.

This work, like others in the series, is significant for its role in documenting and conveying the cultural and geographical diversity of Japan during a period of relative isolation from the rest of the world. It remains an important piece for study in both the fields of art history and Japanese cultural studies.
