description

Summary

The actor Ichimura Uzaemon XII in the role of Ishii Heisuke, from the series ’The 53 stations of the Tokaidō highway’ (or Yakusha Tôkaidô). The story of Ishikawa Heisuke, who is depicted at Kameyama, is not known. Kameyama is one of the fifty-three stations along the Tōkaidō highway between Kyōto and Edo (Old Tokyo). After the great popular success of Hiroshige's views of the fifty-three stopping places, many print-makers turned out prints that were variations on the theme.
