The painting '107. Fukagawa Susaki and Jūmantsubo' is part of a series of 119 ukiyo-e artworks titled 'One Hundred Famous Views of Edo' headed by renowned Japanese artist Hiroshige. The artwork is characterised by a mesmerising landscape combining the rustic beauty of nature with elements of traditional Japanese architecture. The scene is masterfully brought to life using the traditional woodcut technique. Serialized between 1856 and 1859, the series became enormously popular and was frequently reprinted, cementing itself as a significant cultural hallmark of the ukiyo-e genre.
