Views of Ueno and Asakusa, a pair of Japanese handscroll paintings. Edo period, around AD 1716-36. The painting style suggests a machi-eshi ('town painter') who may have been trained in the Sumiyoshi school. The two paintings are set in spring and summer. The scroll set in spring shows cherry-blossom time in the hilly Ueno district around Kan'eiji Temple. Worshippers of all classes - samurai with their two swords, merchants, artists, women and children - are strolling, or sitting eating and drinking, listening to music or enjoying other entertainments. H: 295mm, L: 10665mm. reg. no: AC 1950,1111,0.21.2(&Others).
