Description

A white cat sits serenely on a windowsill, gazing out through a wooden lattice screen over the Asakusa rice fields toward a distant Mount Fuji beneath a vivid pink and blue twilight sky. Flocks of birds cross the horizon while the floor inside is decorated with a repeating crab motif on dark fabric. This woodblock print is from Hiroshige's celebrated series 'One Hundred Famous Views of Edo' (1856–1858), depicting the Torinomachi festival procession grounds in Asakusa, a historic district of old Edo — present-day Tokyo — renowned for the Sensō-ji temple.
