Eleventh Month: Kaomise Gifts Piled High at Saruwakacho, from Twelve Months of Edo Customs (Left Panel)
Under big lanterns marked with crests, a decoration dyed with red crests shows against white mountains, and the foreground is packed with the heads of a crowd. A yellow signboard stands at the left edge.
About this print
A yellow signboard lined with round rings stands tall at the left edge. Above, large white and red lanterns marked with crests hang from golden eaves, and in the middle a decoration dyed with red crests appears against white mountains. In front of it, red lanterns hang in a row, and the bottom edge is filled with the heads of a crowd.
Together with the right and center sheets it makes one continuous picture, and this sheet goes at the far left. In 1889, when the print was made, the Morita-za was no longer in Saruwakacho; it had moved to Shintomicho in Kyobashi in 1872. As "Edo Customs" at the head of the title suggests, what is shown here is Saruwakacho as it was in Edo times.
On the yellow signboard at the left, black rings line up in two vertical columns, with long, thin red shapes peeking out between them. At the very top of the signboard hangs a single tag with what looks like black writing on white.
