東京開化三十六景 木母寺の雪見
Snow Viewing at Mokuboji, from Thirty-six Views of Modern Tokyo
Against a snowy shore, a black umbrella and a yellow one stand open in a boat. Under the gray, snowy sky, the yellow of the umbrella and of a kimono glows.
About this print
On the right are a snow-covered pine and a roofed building. People in yellow, purple and blue kimono ride in the boat in the foreground, and one of them holds a pole. Far back on the left are a shore and trees. At the right edge stands something like a red post, and at the very bottom, blue water shows through.
Mokuboji is the temple at the northern end of the Sumida Embankment, which runs along the Sumida River. It is known for the legend of Umewakamaru and his mother, told in the Noh play Sumidagawa. After the Meiji Restoration it ceased to be a temple for a time, but it was later revived.
