"Oiso Toraga Ame Shower" is a woodblock print from the series "53 Stations of the Tōkaidō Road" by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Andō Hiroshige. Created in the Edo period, this series was first published in the 1830s and depicts scenes from each of the 53 post stations along the Tōkaidō, the coastal road connecting Edo (modern-day Tokyo) with Kyoto, the imperial capital.

The "Oiso Toraga Ame Shower" print specifically illustrates the thirty-third station, Oiso, capturing a moment of sudden rainfall. The term "Toraga Ame" refers to a sudden downpour, which is a common occurrence during the Japanese summer. Hiroshige's masterful use of composition and perspective conveys the urgency and discomfort of travelers caught in the rain. The print is characterized by its dynamic portrayal of people scurrying for shelter and the atmospheric effects of the rain on the landscape.

Hiroshige's "53 Stations of the Tōkaidō Road" series is celebrated for its innovative approach to landscape art and its influence on the development of the ukiyo-e genre. The series was immensely popular in Japan and later in the West, contributing to the Japonisme movement that influenced many European artists in the late 19th century. "Oiso Toraga Ame Shower" is a prime example of Hiroshige's ability to evoke mood and movement, making it a significant work within this seminal series.
