Shizuoka City Tokaido Hiroshige Museum of Art
Tokaido Hiroshige Museum opened in 1994 in Yui-honjin Park, which used to be the central area of the Tokaido post-town "Yui-juku". This is the first art museum in Japan to take the name of the famous Edo period Ukiyoe artist, Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858). The museum's collection of over 1,400 artworks include Hiroshige's prominent Tokaido series and his later masterpiece "Meisho Edo Hyakkei (One Hundred Famous Views of Edo)". The exhibition is rearranged each month in order for visitors to be able to constantly enjoy the ukiyoe art from a new perspective.
