Description: This image is from the massive series "Edo Meisho Hyakkei" (100 Views of Famous Places in Edo) created by Hiroshige. It depicts a location still present today - a temple in Ueno Park built in (rough) imitation of the famous one in Kyoto with a high platform.

The tree we see - with the curled branch - has long since died, but has recently been 'created' anew by the park gardeners, although on a much smaller scale.

A post-war reproduction from the O-Edo Mokuhan-sha Company.


This particular edition was produced by the O-Edo Mokuhan-sha in the immediate post-war period.

As you can see from the information in the cartouche, this one was carved by Kametaro Harada, whose bench Dave is using these days, having received it from Harada-san's son a few years ago.
