The famous Japanese artist, painter, and printmaker, Utagawa Hiroshige (1797 - 1858), is best known for his woodblock print series, "The Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido," from which this collection is drawn in part. The beautiful ukiyo-e prints ("pictures of the floating world") chosen for this paper pack boast flowing outlines and colorful forms. This collection features full-color reproductions of woodblock print masterpieces that are complemented by accent colors on the reverse.

"When I first received the Hokusai and Hiroshige print origami paper packs […] I was just too afraid to fold these beautiful arts. I didn't want to ruin some of Japan's finest arts in history by folding! I just wanted to keep and admire them, without folding. […] Overall, I am extremely pleased with these products. I grew to love them, even thought I was a little intimidated by what they are at first. As Japanese and and as an artist I inevitably wanted to pay respect to some of the greatest Japanese artists, Hokusai and Hiroshige. But I am glad that I found many uses of these prints that bring out the beauties in them." —Yuki Origami blog
