Description :
Scene Outside of the Sakurada, by Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) This series is titled with the characters "river capital", pronounced Edo, the name which is normally rendered in characters that can be read "river door". The area around the moats of Edo Castle, the present-day Imperial Palace grounds, was a pleasant site of water and well-tended plants, and it was one of the most scenic spots in Edo. The castle's Sakurada Gate can be seen in the upper left, and the figures in the center include images of women typical in late Edo period prints. But here their figures are shown with a slightly choppy rhythm.
