Comments - Lovely view of cherry trees in full bloom along the Sumida River embankment. The beauty at right shields her eyes with her hand as she looks up, admiring the pink and white blossoms of an ancient cherry tree. She wears a finely striped kimono and carries a Western-style umbrella. In the center, two young girls busy themselves plucking small red flower, while a couple strolls along the path below. The hilltop location provides a beautiful view of the river and Mt. Fuji beyond. An attractive design, nicely composed with attractive color and fine bokashi shading in the sky.
