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 harbor town with a background of mountains. Three slips are under the fan: the pink one reads Otsu, the yellow one reads Otsu pictures (Otsu-e) and Gengoro crucian (funa), and the green one reads [Ani]o. The bottom quadrant on the left contains a depiction of the pictures and the fish on a dish. The right slip reads Tokaido on the group mark. Two travelers are walking along the river, one of whom is leading a horse and the other one is carrying a large package in the fan frame, decorated with camellias and chrysanthemums. The three slips under the fan read Kusatsu, famous product (meibutsu) Ubaga rice cake (mochi) bamboo rods and Omasu respectively from the right. The bottom quadrant contains the rice cake on a serving table and two rods.
