Description

This woodblock print depicts the post-town of Narumi — the 40th station on the historic Tōkaidō Road connecting Edo (Tokyo) and Kyoto — bathed in the warm glow of a sunset sky that fades from deep indigo to vivid orange. Travelers, merchants, and townsfolk move along a bustling shop-lined street beside a steep, pine-crested hill, capturing the lively commercial character of an Edo-period post station. Narumi, located in present-day Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, was renowned for its tie-dyed 'Narumi shibori' textile craft, glimpsed in the colorful shop displays lining the road.
