織田公上洛式(其二)
Lord Oda's March to Kyoto, Part 2
From beside the people leading black horses, a procession carries on down the dirt road into the distance.
About this photo
In front of the corner of a large building or gate, people are leading a couple of black horses. From the middle toward the right, the people of the procession carry on, and in the distance are a white sky and far-off roofs. A wide dirt road spreads across the foreground, and in the left foreground lies something long and black, like a shadow.
At today's Jidai Festival, the procession for Lord Oda's march to Kyoto is said to honor the time Oda Nobunaga led his troops up to Kyoto in the ninth month of 1568, repaired the imperial palace and worked to restore the capital.
Up in the sky in the middle, many thin poles, like those for flags or banners, stand at a slant. Far higher than the heads of the people in the procession, their angles stand out sharply against the white sky.
