"Scenes From The Famous Places In Edo" (also known as "Meisho Edo Hyakkei") is a celebrated series of ukiyo-e woodblock prints created by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Hiroshige, also known as Ando Hiroshige. This series, which translates to "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo," was produced between 1856 and 1858, during the late Edo period. It is considered one of Hiroshige's masterpieces and a quintessential example of the ukiyo-e genre, which flourished in Japan from the 17th to the 19th centuries.

Hiroshige's "Scenes From The Famous Places In Edo" captures the essence of Edo (modern-day Tokyo), depicting its landscapes, seasonal changes, and daily life with remarkable detail and vibrant color. The series consists of 119 prints, each illustrating a different location within the city, ranging from bustling urban centers to serene rural outskirts. Hiroshige's keen eye for composition and his innovative use of perspective and color gradients are evident throughout the series, making each print a unique and evocative portrayal of Edo.

The prints in this series are not only artistic achievements but also valuable historical documents that offer insights into the urban development, culture, and environment of Edo during the mid-19th century. Hiroshige's work reflects the beauty and transience of nature, a theme deeply rooted in Japanese aesthetics, and his ability to convey the atmosphere and mood of each scene has earned him lasting acclaim.

"Scenes From The Famous Places In Edo" has had a significant influence on both Japanese and Western art. The series was highly regarded by contemporaries and later inspired Western artists, including the Impressionists, who admired Hiroshige's innovative compositions and use of color. Today, these prints are held in high esteem by art historians and collectors, and they continue to be exhibited in museums and galleries around the world, celebrated for their artistic brilliance and historical significance.
