Series; Famous Views of the Eastern Capital
Moonlit Evening at Takanawa, circa 1839 - 1842 - Beautiful evening view of the busy waterfront at Takanawa.

Ships are moored in the harbor for the night, and a flock of birds passes before the glowing full moon. A lovely Hiroshige landscape design with soft shading in the water and sky.
