Your Japanese woodblock print is by Ando Hiroshige and is from his famous series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" (Meisho Edo hyakkei) (名所江戸百景). It is Number 94 "Maple Trees at Mama, Tekona Shrine and Linked Bridge" (Mama no momiji Tekona no yashiro Tsugihashi) (真間の紅葉手古那の社継はし).

We have 20, 112, and one or two others from the series. You can see the full series at the link below.

Comparing your print to ones at the Boston MFA and British Museum, I don't believe it is an original.

Cheers,
Stan
