歌川豊広, 歌川豐廣, birth name Okajima Tōjiro (1773–1828), was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist and painter. He was a member of the Utagawa school and studied under Utagawa Toyoharu, the school's founder. His works include a number of ukiyo-e landscape series, as well as many depictions of the daily activities in the Yoshiwara entertainment quarter; many of his stylistic features paved the way for Hokusai and Hiroshige (the latter a prodigy who studied under Toyohiro, becoming one of the very finest of all landscape artists), as well as producing an important series of ukiyo-e in collaboration with Utagawa Toyokuni, and numerous book and e-hon illustrations, which occupied him in his later years.
The ukiyo-e series he produced include the following:
-
Eight Views of Edo (several series)
-
Eight Views of Ōmi (several series)

Newly Published Perspective Pieces ( Shinpan uki-e)
