Dry Goods Store

Sender: Para
Ohdenmacho District, Dry Goods Store by Hiroshige Ando (19th C)
Ohdenmacho is still prosperous, as a centre of textile industry. 
Series: One Hundred Views of Edo, Ukiyo-e.

His greatest works were the great panoramas of Japan in the early 19th century including this series.

Just look at these stamps! They themselves are works of art!
