One Hundred Famous Views of Edo No.113Afui slope lying outside Toranomon Gate

This print depicts two ascetics returning from Toranomon Kotohira Shrine on a cold winter morning. This was a common sight in the depths of winter, since it was considered to be the most meritorious season for ascetic practice.
A guardhouse can be seen at the top of Aoi Slope, which was named after the hollyhocks planted along it. The central soba vendor is likely heading home after a long night of peddling noodles.

These simple yet stylish deep brown wooden frames blend perfectly into any interior.

Since ukiyo-e have unusual aspect ratios, putting them in off-the-shelf frames often results in an unnatural balance between the margins and the print. Our special ukiyo-e frames allow you to display your prints beautifully as soon as they arrive.

These frames can be used vertically or horizontally by simply repositioning the cord, making it easy to display different prints. And since they use light yet durable acrylic instead of glass, transportation is a stress-free experience.
