75th Anniversary of the Meteorological Observatory — 中央気象台創立75年記念

A variant impression or complementary panel from the commemorative print edition produced for the Central Meteorological Observatory's 75th anniversary in 1950. Hasui occasionally produced paired or alternate designs for the same institutional commission, differing in season, time of day, or compositional emphasis. This version may present a different atmospheric state—perhaps evening or winter rather than the companion print's season—exploiting the same architectural or landscape subject to demonstrate the observatory's core mission of recording meteorological change. The print's production would have followed the standard [shin-hanga](/glossary/shin-hanga) division of labor: Hasui supplied the design, specialist carvers cut the blocks, and trained printers pulled the editions under publisher supervision.
