〔江戸勝景〕 桜田外の図（収載資料名：広重画帖）
A Japanese woodblock print from the Hiroshige picture album of Edo views, published by Kawase, showing the moat outside Sakurada gate in Edo. The image shows a curving moat edged by grass banks, with travellers in kimono and hats walking along the path past low walls, red gates and pine trees under a pale sky. A designer could take its flat colour planes, the sweeping curve of the water, and the layered horizon of wall, roofline and tree silhouettes as a compositional model.
