Utagawa Hiroshige III (1842/1843 – March 28, 1894) was a Japanese <i>ukiyo-e</i> artist who was a student of Utagawa Hiroshige. He was also referred to as Andō Tokubei. Born Gotō Torakichi, he was given the artistic name Shigemasa. In 1867, after Hiroshige II, a fellow pupil of the original Hiroshige, divorced the master's daughter Otatsu, Gotō married her and initially took on the name Hiroshige II as well, but by 1869 he began calling himself Hiroshige III.<br/><br/>

Hiroshige III worked in the same artistic style as his master, but did not achieve anywhere near the same level of success.
Utagawa Hiroshige II (1826-1869) was the successor and pupil of ukiyo-e print-master Hiroshige, inheriting his name after his death in 1858. He married his master's daughter, though they divorced in 1865, after which he began using the name Kisai Rissho. His work is so similar to his master's that most scholars often confuse their prints.
