"From Fifty-three Stations" by Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige, is a celebrated series of ukiyo-e woodblock prints that depict the Tōkaidō, the most important of the Five Routes of the Edo period in Japan. This series, formally titled "The Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō" (東海道五十三次, Tōkaidō Gojūsan-tsugi), was first published in 1833-1834 and consists of 55 prints: one for each of the 53 post stations along the route, plus one for the starting point at Nihonbashi in Edo (modern-day Tokyo) and one for the terminus at the Sanjō Bridge in Kyoto.

Hiroshige's work captures the diverse landscapes, towns, and people encountered along the Tōkaidō, which stretched approximately 492 kilometers (306 miles) from Edo to Kyoto. Each print in the series is a masterful blend of natural beauty and human activity, showcasing Hiroshige's keen eye for detail and his ability to convey the atmosphere of each location. The series is renowned for its innovative compositions, use of perspective, and vibrant color palette, which were achieved through the collaboration of skilled carvers and printers.

The "Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō" not only provides a visual travelogue of one of Japan's most significant travel routes but also reflects the cultural and social milieu of the Edo period. The prints were immensely popular upon their release and have continued to be highly regarded in both Japan and the West. They played a significant role in influencing Western artists, particularly the Impressionists, who admired Hiroshige's ability to capture fleeting moments and his use of bold, flat colors.

Hiroshige's Tōkaidō series remains a quintessential example of ukiyo-e art and a valuable historical document, offering insights into the daily life, travel, and landscape of 19th-century Japan.
