Description

A boatman steers his craft across the Asakusa River in the rain. The bright red Kinryūzan Temple can be seen in the distance. The chu-tanzaku is from Hiroshige's "Famous Places in Edo" series. The illustration of all the houses "huddled" together in the rain gives a cozy feeling to the print.
