Hibiya and Soto-Sakurada from
Yamashita-cho (Benkei Moat)
Series: One Hundred Famous Views of Edo
Variant/Copy
This print is a variant of the Hiroshige
woodblock "Hibiya and Soto-Sakurada from
Yamashita-cho". The Meiji-Era artist is not read.
Most striking difference is the casette in the upper right,
and the missing casette in the lower right. The stamp in the
lower right is not read. The variant is definitely smaller as
the Uo-ya Eikichi 1918 print (16.5cm X 22.2cm versus
21.9cm X 33.7). The arrangment
of all those kites is identical.
