Hibiya and Soto-Sakurada from Yamashita-cho - A fantastic Hiroshige print depicting a festive atmosphere on New Year's Day. In the foreground, two celebrants play battledore and shuttlecock by a moat. Kites fly above the city and Mt. Fuji rises majestically in the distance. Across the moat, running the length of the print Hiroshige illustrates the impressive gate and front wall of a daimyo mansion.
