The Boundary Marker near Fujikawa - Handsome scene depicting the arrival of the shogun's entourage at Fujikawa on their way to Kyoto. Traditionally, the shogun would send the emperor a gift of horses every year. Here, town officials kneel along the roadway at the boundary marker to welcome the procession, bowing respectfully as three puppies play nearby. Lovely detail in the gently waving grasses at right and the tall trees framing the scene, with fine bokashi shading in background.
