- Views of Ten Tea Houses: Takanawa
- Artist
- Torii Kiyonaga
- Physical Description
- In this print, one of a series of ten views of "tea house" districts, Kiyonaga has depicted two women and a child strolling along the shore by the sea wall at Takanawa. A woman at left shields her eyes from the summer sun with her fan, and has her obi tied in front of her. The younger looking companion holding her hand wears a gaily flowered kimono, which has fallen wide open. A child walks with them, gesturing to the side of the print. The front portion of a boat and wall of a town or temple lie behind them.
- This is an especially well-preserved print, where even the indigo blue is still visible.

- Zen eccentric contemplating a fish
- Artist
- Kanô Tsunenobu
- Physical Description
- A shabbily dressed figure holds out at arm’s length a small fish. He is completely focused on his catch, and his mouth almost seems to drool. The face, hands, and feet are sketched in a deliberately simplistic way, while the costume is drawn with only a few swift slashes of the brush, and the strokes bleed into each other.

- Here, caught in a sudden downpour, people rush along the steep hillside.
