Following Wikipedia policy on article names (which says "What .. would the average user of the Wikipedia put into the search engine?") we have been listing Japanese woodblock prints artists under the names they are commonly known by in the West - which means we do not use their complete names (which are rarely used in the West, and for artists of this era change over time anyway). Please see Talk:Sharaku for an extended discussion on this topic. Please leave them where they are. Thank you. -- Noel 20:36, 10 Oct 2004 (UTC)
This edit claims the Hiroshige was copied from Encarta. I don't have access to Encarta, but most of the text has been copied from the WebMuseum with this edit. The WebMuseum license allows that. But where did the WebMuseum get their article? And where did Encarta get theirs? Can someone compare to Encarta? -- Rl 18:17, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
It might be best to create a new article Hiroshige/temp and replace the current article with the new one. We can write a decent stub and fill the rest in later. – By the way, I have added a warning to the WebMuseum entry in Wikipedia:Free or semi-free non-Public-Domain information resources. -- Rl 06:55, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
I've deleted the original copyvio article and replaced it with the temp article, as requested (I've also reformatted the new article, so that the image and text are properly aligned). Good luck with the rewrite! -- Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης) 09:07, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
We haven't used it as a reference for the new article, and it may invite others to copy stuff from there too (because the webmuseum pages are supposedly GFDL compatible). What do you think about removing the reference section for now? -- Rl 21:13, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
What is up with this guy's name? I've seen "Andro Hiroshige", "Ando Hiroshige", and "Ichiyusai Hiroshige". Which is right? For that matter, how do you pronounce "Hiroshige" anyway? -- Maru 03:49, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
Andō is the first family name that Hiroshige was born with, the full name being Andō Tokutaro. However, after he studied with the artist Utagawa Toyohiro (head of the Utagawa school at the time), he then changed his family name to Utagawa to signify his alliance with the Utagawa school in 1812. It as at this point that he took the artistic name of Hiroshige, thus becoming known as "Utagawa Hiroshige." Artists would often change their name several times over their career to signify changes in their artistic development. Hiroshige is known by many including "Ichiyūsai Hiroshige," "Ichiryūsai Hiroshige," and many others.
I've rewritten as best as I can. Please review and add to it. -- Maru 01:36, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
The IPA given in the article gives a common way that Westerners pronounce the name, but it is quite incorrect. The "o" and "e" are short, not long. Also there is no stress on the "shi" syllable; in fact the "i" of "shi" is almost inaudible in the Japanese pronunciation. Does anyone know the correct IPA representation of the Japanese "r"? I'll come back later with a proposed better IPA rendering. -- McKay 23:01, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
A ukiyo-e artist by the name of Moronobu Ishikawa (in the English dub, at least) shows up in the fifth episode of the anime Samurai Champloo. In the episode, he attempts to stow away on a ship to the West; he doesn't make it, but one of his works does, and is said to inspire Van Gogh in a manner very similar to Hiroshige's. Does this qualify as an appearance of Hiroshige under another name, and thus justify an "In Popular Culture" section with one or two lines detailing the appearance? - Toptomcat 22:55, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

128.223.176.157 ( talk) 18:26, 1 June 2009 (UTC) There is another show in the works of Hiroshige's 53 Stations alongside a contemporary Japanese printmaker who revisioned the work - Junichiro Sekino. You can find the info here: http://jsma.uoregon.edu/exhibitions/upcoming/
I like this article, but for a B-Class assessment to hold, it needs more citations at the end of paragraphs. Viriditas ( talk) 10:24, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
This website claims that 'Hiroshige passed away on the sixth day of September of the year 1858' rather than the date currently in the infobox. Can anyone who can translate the text in File:Portrait à la mémoire d'Hiroshige par Kunisada.jpg confirm if this is true? JMiall ₰ 16:19, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

I have a series of originals. I bought 10 original pieces of what looks like samurai preparing for battle and the travels they took. Two have slight water damage on the corner. Looks like they are ink on old rice paper. Anyone know where I can have them appraised? Or can point me in the right direction for a buyer. These should be in a gallery somewhere. Thanks for any help and your time. Orbit442 ( talk) 07:01, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
