Description: This print is from a series "Ukiyo-e Fukei Hanga Shutaisei" (Collection of Ukiyo-e Landscape Prints), a postwar reproduction of 24 prints by 20 different artists selected by Adachi company as the best examples of landscape prints from the late Edo period.

Using the panoramic technique, it depicts the entrance of Ueno Park crowded with people, with three bridges in the foreground and the Nio-mon Gate in the background (both no longer there). It is interesting to see the variety of people in the scene, with their gestures depicted in great detail.
