Night View of Ryogoku Bridge, circa 1830s - Lovely image of a beauty placing a lighted oil lamp into a paper lantern at a tea stand. She wears an intricately patterned kimono tied with a gourd print obi that reverses to black, a towel draped over her shoulder and a maple leaf print apron tied around her waist. A floral-shaped inset at upper left shows a view of fireworks exploding in the gray evening sky above Ryogoku Bridge. A great design.
