"Kinokuni-zaka, Akasaka Tameike Enkei" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. Hiroshige, who lived from 1797 to 1858, is celebrated for his evocative landscapes and his ability to capture the transient beauty of nature and urban life in Edo-period Japan. This particular print is part of Hiroshige's famous series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" (Meisho Edo Hyakkei), which was published between 1856 and 1858. The series is highly regarded for its innovative compositions and its detailed portrayal of various locations in Edo (modern-day Tokyo).

The print captures the essence of Edo's urban and natural environments, blending the tranquility of nature with the bustling life of the city. The composition typically features a winding road or slope, with travelers or locals going about their daily activities, set against a backdrop of lush greenery, traditional architecture, and distant mountains or bodies of water.

Hiroshige's use of perspective and his masterful application of color and shading techniques create a sense of depth and movement, drawing the viewer into the scene. The artist's attention to detail and his ability to convey the atmosphere of the location make this print a valuable piece of cultural and historical documentation, as well as a work of art.

The "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" series, including "Kinokuni-zaka, Akasaka Tameike Enkei," has had a lasting impact on both Japanese and Western art.
