Hiroshige: References & Edit History
More Articles On This Topic
Additional Reading
Edward F. Strange, The Colour-Prints of Hiroshigé (1925, reissued as Hiroshige’s Woodblock Prints, 1983), is the principal reference work in English, though it is often based upon outdated sources. Yone Noguchi, Hiroshige, 2 vol. (1934–40), an impressionistic monograph, is well illustrated. Richard Lane, Masters of the Japanese Print (1962), includes a critical survey of Hiroshige’s work, based on original sources.
