Cherry Blossoms at Night in the Yoshiwara, circa 1843 - 1844 - Terrific springtime view of the bustling Yoshiwara district during the cherry blossom season. Elegant courtesans and their small attendants stroll along, some accompanied by servants carrying paper lanterns. Guests look down from the second story verandahs of the teahouses on either side of the entrance gate. The Boston Museum of Fine Arts has this image in its collection. A charming scene with lovely color.
