The story and details

The story: From One Hundred Famous Views of Edo. Hiroshige pushes the trunk right up against the viewer, so we look through it at the visitors beyond — a daring crop that Vincent van Gogh copied in oil in 1887. That copy is in this shop too, on its own mug.

Details: Glossy white ceramic · 11 oz · the picture printed on both sides with the artist’s name beneath · dishwasher- and microwave-safe · lead- and BPA-free.
