Summary[edit]

Description
English: [Tōkyō jūnikagetsu no uchi Sangatsu by Otake Kunikazu. Uploader's note: See also here]

Original text: A young girl holding a doll remembers the revelry during a festival beneath blossoming cherry trees on the banks of a river.
Notes:

Forms part of: Japanese prints and drawings (Library of Congress).

Exhibited: "Sakura : Cherry Blossom as Living Symbol of Friendship" in the Graphic Arts Gallery, Thomas Jefferson Building, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C., 2012.

Exhibit caption: The small landscape depicted celebrates Mukōjima situated on the east bank of the Sumida River. This is still a famous destination for viewing the cherry blossom trees that were first planted there by Shōgun Tokugawa Yoshimune (1684-1751). The fashionable young girl in the foreground is holding what is likely an emperor doll associated with the March 3rd Hinamatsuri or Girls Day festival. [Otake] Kunikazu was a student of Utagawa Kunimasa and the oldest of three artist brothers. Prints of this type, called kuchi-e or "mouth pictures," were made as frontispiece illustrations for novels and literary journals. They were especially popular during the Meiji era (1868-1912) phenomenon.
