Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji: Asakusa Honganji Temple in Edo 冨嶽三十六景　東都浅草本願寺ふがくさんじゅうろっけい　とうとあさくさほんがんじ

Description

浅草本願寺は現在の台東区浅草に位置する。もともと神田明神下にあったが、明暦3年（1657）の明暦の大火の後、浅草へ移転した。大屋根をもつこの壮大な建築は江戸の市民を驚愕させたという。屋根の職人たちは幾分小さく描かれており、屋根の大きさが強調されている。屋根と同じ高さから町を見下ろすアングルが斬新である。また屋根と富士山との対比も面白い。藍摺りを基調にしながら朱色の凧がアクセントとなっている。
