1859, Utagawa Hiroshige, Nunobiki Waterfall in Settsu Province -- British Museum (London)
From the museum label: Hiroshige remembered his students in his will but named only his 'long-time aide' Shigenobu, who started calling himself Hiroshige Il in 1859. Hiroshige Il carried the master's style and approach to composition into the next generation. He based this print on a sketch of Nunobiki Waterfall found in one of Hiroshige's sketchbooks (displayed on the right).
