東京開化三十六景 高輪大木戸
Takanawa Okido, from Thirty-six Views of Modern Tokyo
On a street at night, people carrying what look like yellow-and-black boxes stand out brightly. A white full moon hangs in the sky.
About this print
On the left is a two-story house with lit windows. Midway up on the right, white smoke trails sideways, and something black shows beneath it. People in blue walk along the street in the foreground, and someone holds what looks like a red flag.
The Takanawa Okido was a gate set up where the Tokaido entered the city of Edo, with stone walls built on both sides of the road. The west wall was taken down in the early Meiji era. Only the eastern one remains today, and it is a National Historic Site.
