Description
The landscape of Sagami Province — the area southwest of Tokyo that includes Kamakura and the Miura Peninsula — is rendered in Hiratsuka's 1924 woodblock style. The Sagami landscape subject belongs to his early documentation of the Kanto region's varied terrain: coastal, agricultural, and mountainous zones within a day's travel of Tokyo.
