Series; Famous Places in the Capital, circa 1870 - 1871
Famous Places in the Capital - Handsome design from Osaka artist Sadanobu's series "Famous Places in the Capital," published circa 1870 - 1871. Subjects include panoramic landscapes and noted shrines and landmarks in and around Tokyo. It's rare to find landscape series by an Osaka artist, so these prints are a nice complement to Sadanobu's more well known kabuki portraits. Nicely detailed. The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston has several prints from this series in its collection.
