Kasumigaseki, 1854 - Interesting scene of the bustling Kasumigaseki district in Edo, as pedestrians, merchants, and laborers make their way through the streets. In the center, a porter carrying two young pine trees from a yoke over his shoulder, ready to transplant, while at left, a young child holds a pole with a toy octopus dangling from it. Daimyo's mansions line the road and the steep hill at center. An attractive design, nicely detailed.
