Printing - Les rizières d'Asakusa

MX038624

In the format of the 101st board of the Hundred Views of Edo - so-called "brocart" print (nishi-e) also implementing the kimedashi technique (embossing) - tells a less placid story than the cat that is the central subject. One November evening in Yoshiwara - Edo's Pleasure Quarter, renamed Tokyo in 1868 - the animal contemplates a procession of pilgrims walking through the rice fields of Asakusa, a northeastern neighborhood, to celebrate at the Buddhist Sanctuary of the Koq Festival, the tenth animal of the Japanese zodiac. The room - a courtesan bed on the first floor of a keiseiya (guest house) - is renamed to the towel and the finger-wrapping on the window sill, and to the bun pins adorned with flowers and stitched in the sheet of paper protruding from the screen. The flight of wild geese in the sky and the reassuring majesty of Mount Fuji should not obscure the fact that on those days, yajo ("courtisanes") were obliged to receive at least one customer.
