Hiroshige was born in 1776, the son of Ando Genemon, a fireman who worked as a fireman on the Yashirosu river bank in Edo. He loved painting from an early age and became a student of Toyohiro Utagawa at the age of 15. At first, he painted beauties and portraits of actors, but he soon became famous as a popular painter by creating numerous landscapes, starting with his "Famous Places of the Eastern Capital" series.
