〔江戸高名会亭尽〕 本所小梅(収載資料名:広重画帖)

藤彦 · 1 picture

A Japanese ehon woodblock print from the Hiroshige album of famous Edo teahouses, published by Fujihiko, showing a riverside teahouse district of Honjo Umeyashiki. The picture shows a covered pleasure boat with passengers gliding past thatched-roof teahouses, willows and shoji-screened pavilions, and a designer could take its layered planes, flat colour washes and calm waterside composition as a model for pictorial depth.
