I don't know how to add this print to the main Hiroshige Wikimedia page. It is also by Hiroshige and on Wikimedia Commons.

Can anyone do this and maybe point me to a How-to?

name-order[edit]

the artist's name is listed here in the "english translation" (or "western-style") name-order; his name is more properly given as "Utagawa Hiroshige".

that is the original, correct japanese name-order, & it is more of an "international standard" for such things.

also; it is BADLY CONFUSING to have japanese names listed with differing "default" name-order practices!

for japanese film actors, there is some precedent for using "western" name order; BUT for general use, not so much...

& it is an obsolete & english-language-specific convention, for the names of graphic artists ( i.e.: painters & printmakers)
