English: Kidai Shoran (Excellent View of Our Prosperous Age [in Edo]), Anonymous Japanese handscroll c. 1805, Museum of Asian Art (Berlin). It depicts Edo Nihonbashi in the second year of culture (1805). The author is unknown. A long picture scroll of 43.7 cm in length and 1232.2 cm in width, the wholesale street connected to Nihonbashi Dori and the people who pass through it are drawn in detail.
