Wednesday, 26 January 2005 Shanks' Mare Tokaido Series: #6 Totsuka Artist: Tamenobu Fujikawa Format: Oban yoko-e: 9.5" x 14" approx Subject: The two heroes of 'Shanks' Mare Tokaido' (Tokaido Hizakurige) by Jippensha Ikku, here depicted by Tamenobu, Yajirobe and Kitahachi.

Most of the landscape designs bear more than a passing acknowledgment to the designs of Hiroshige for his Great Tokaido series. Here our heroes are depicted outside a tea-house, in a state of over-excitement at the arrival of a noble lady.
