One Hundred Famous Views of Edo No.119Evening view of rain in paulownia field at Akasaka by Hiroshige Jr.

This print depicts an area near the present-day location of the Akasaka-Mitsuke intersection. Although Tameike Pond in the foreground no longer exists, you can still picture this scene with the slope in the background, which led to the Akasaka Gomon gate. Hiroshige II actually crafted this print, and it is considered one of his best works. You can see how he has fully inherited the style of his master. Like Hiroshige the elder, the younger Hiroshige created many works depicting famous locations, but later shifted to producing images of foreigners in Yokohama, which were trendy at the time.
