| Title |
The Moon-Viewing Promontory, from the series One Hundred Views of Famous Places in Edo |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
Hiroshige, who frequently designed prints with unusual or humorous viewpoints, has placed the viewer by pine trees, peering through a doorway at the end of a moon-viewing party. The silhouette of an elaborately coiffed woman is visible through a translucent paper door; only her hem trails into the room. Another person remains seated on the floor in the upper right, near a musical instrument and a tray with blue-and-white ceramics. This figure may still be admiring the autumn moon over ships in Tokyo Bay. |
