Series; Thirty-six Views of the Eastern Capital, 1861 - 1862
Morning Mist at Zojo Temple - Beautiful view of Zojo Temple in the early morning mist. In the foreground, two beauties in matching spider web kimono pause to watch a laborer passing by with two tubs of fish hanging from the yoke over his shoulder. The figures behind them are silhouetted in dark blue gray, with the buildings beyond enveloped in a soft haze, and trees and a mountain seen faintly in the distance. Lovely bokashi shading in the background. A wonderful atmospheric scene.
