Description
Two pairs of two unit votive slips, both with a red group mark (Hakkakuren) at the top and an advertisement for Sennyoko on the top right-hand side. The upper quadrant of each part contains fan frames with scenery. Both slips include the name Utashige. On the left slip, the group mark reads fifty-three stations (Gojusan-tsugi) and the fan is decorated with red maple flowers and pink cherry blossoms and depicts a packhorse driver travelling on a road between two hills. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Nissaka, the yellow one reads famous product (meibutsu) bracken-starch dumpling (warabi mochi), and the green one reads Miya[isa]. The bottom quadrant on the left contains a depiction of the dumplings in a square container with a pair of chopsticks and a cup of tea. The right slip reads Tokaido on the group mark. Many travelers crossing the Oi River are depicted in the fan frame, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Kanaya, starch syrup rice cake (ame no mochi) of Sayo no Nakayama, and Choei, respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains some rice cakes on a tray.
