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 three travelers writing “Umasho” on a large tree in the front. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Futakawa, the yellow one reads rocks of a wife and husband (meotoiwa), and the green one reads Tokinishiki. The bottom quadrant on the left contains a depiction of a pair of rocks that resemble the statues of a woman and a man facing each other. The right slip reads Tokaido on the group mark. Boats on the ocean and travelers climbing up a hill are depicted in the fan frame, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Shirasuka, Sarugababa rice cake wrapped in oak leaf (kashiwamochi) and Sayakichi, respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains rice cakes packed in a wooden box.
