Label Text:
This is a later copy of Hiroshige's series, which was originally published by Takenouchi Magohachi. One notable difference is the omission of the text normally at upper-middle, which identifies the series and the title of the impression (see Boston MFA acc. no.s: 06.1287, 11.2112, 11.23099, 11.26132, 11.38853, 11.45566, 21.5068, 2009.2411.42).
