Description: A woodblock-printed postcard probably published for foreign tourists in the post-war period, featuring a sightseeing spot in Kyoto. This print probably depicts Daigoku-den, the main hall of Heian Shrine. The pink color used for the weeping cherry blossoms and the building is giving a nice spring atmosphere to it.

Note: unlike some of the other prints of this type that we currently have in the catalogue, this one is not mounted on a postcard.

There are a few marks on the left margin of this print.
