諸人成田山参詣之図(右の1枚)
Crowds on Pilgrimage to Naritasan (Right Panel)
Holding high a red banner on a pole topped with a blue umbrella, men in navy kimono press forward in a tight group. Behind them spread a blue river and green fields.
About this print
A long red banner hangs from a pole topped with a blue umbrella and flutters above the heads of the group. There is writing on the banner. Below it, men in navy and blue kimono make their way up a slanting road, some wearing woven hats, some carrying loads. In the distance two blue rivers flow, and beyond the green fields, faint mountains stretch away.
The title, "諸人成田山参詣之図" (Crowds on Pilgrimage to Naritasan), is written at the upper right of this sheet, the right-hand one of a set. Place it side by side with the left sheet and the picture continues. Naritasan in the title means Daihonzan Naritasan Shinshoji Temple, known for O-Fudo-sama (Fudo Myoo).
Shift your eye to the green fields across the river, and you'll see small red figures that look like people, standing here and there. Compared with the men in the foreground, they are no bigger than peas.
