Description: From the series "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (1856-1858) which actually contains 118 total prints, in full vertical format of classic Hiroshige landscapes. Around the Kawaguchi area, the Sumida River did not have any bridges so those who wanted to cross used ferries. For security reasons, when shogun (army commander) traveled, they preferred to use ferries. Usually, they would take hundreds of thousands of staff with them, so it must have been a big operation to get everyone to the other side. Zenkoji Temple is depicted in the top right corner.

This is a post-war reproduction from the Yamada Shoin Company.

There are slight creases on this print.
