This woodblock print, *Landscape View at Yokohama (Yokohama fūkei)*, was created in 1860 by Utagawa (Gountei) Sadahide, a prominent artist of the Edo period. The artwork depicts a panoramic view of Yokohama, a city in Japan that was undergoing rapid modernization and Westernization during this time. The scene features a winding path leading up a hillside, dotted with cherry blossom trees, and a distant view of the sea, reflecting the changing landscape of the city. Sadahide's meticulous detail and vibrant color palette offer a glimpse into the vibrant landscape of Yokohama during the early Meiji era.
