Description: From the series "8 Views of the Eastern Capital".

One of the more intricate and detailed prints in this series by Hiroshige, "Descending Geese at Shinobazu" features many different elements, including geese, houses, a lake, several figures, marshes, a bridge, cherry blossom trees, a temple, and so on. Perhaps the most impressive detail in the print, however, is the silhouettes of people sitting and standing inside the buildings surrounding Bentendo temple, which is a popular sightseeing spot to this day.
