Cataloged without its original title, this [oban](/glossary/oban) woodblock print by Hasegawa Sadanobu III was recorded in the Japanese Art Open Database. The work carries urban-scene and landscape tags, suggesting a composition that merges architectural elements with natural surroundings, a format consistent with Sadanobu III's body of work depicting scenes from Kyoto, Osaka, and other Japanese cities. The Hasegawa Sadanobu lineage stretches back to the Edo period, and each successive artist inheriting the name was expected to maintain a standard of craftsmanship while adapting to changing audiences. Sadanobu III met this obligation by producing prints that could appeal both to Japanese domestic buyers and to the growing international market for Japanese woodblock prints that expanded throughout the twentieth century.
