江戸風俗十二ケ月之内 七月 筋違見附八辻（中の1枚）
Seventh Month: Yatsuji at Sujikai Gate, from Twelve Months of Edo Customs (Center Panel)
Under a large red Japanese umbrella, two women walk side by side, one in purple vertical stripes and one in a light blue kimono. Red and green fluttering things dance across the sky.
About this print
Red and green fluttering things drift here and there across the sky, and below them stretches an embankment lined with green trees. Toward the right, two women walk under a large red Japanese umbrella. On the left are a person in a navy kimono and a person in a yellow one, and farther back, a crowd of tiny figures stands in rows.
Of three sheets that join side by side into one picture, this is the middle one. In 1873, a stone arch bridge, Mansei Bridge, was built near Sujikai, the place in the title. The Yatsukoji at Sujikai also appears in One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, under the title "Sujikai uchi Yatsukoji" (Yatsukoji, Inside Sujikai).
Move to the lower left of the brown ground, and there is a small white dog with brown patches. It lifts its head and faces the person in the navy kimono to its right.
