Kyobashi takegashi. Bamboo yards, Kyobashi. Print shows pedestrians crossing the Kyo Bridge as a man poles a boat on the river below, with long pieces of bamboo along the bank on the left, and a full moon overhead. Since ancient times the Japanese have contemplated the combination of snow, flowers, moon, and the beauties of nature. And not only have they contemplated such scenes, they've also made them favored themes for paintings and poetry.
