"Carrying a Lantern Decorated with a Pavilion, Gohei, Flowers, and Fan (Sekiguchi-cho Rosoku-cho no banto)" from the series "The Festival of the Kanda Shrine (Kanda go-sairei)" is a woodblock print by Torii Kiyonaga created in 1779. The print depicts a lively scene of a festival procession, highlighting a group of people carrying a large lantern adorned with a pavilion, a gohei (a sacred wand), and flowers. The vibrant colors and dynamic poses capture the energy of the event. This print is a testament to Kiyonaga's mastery of ukiyo-e, a genre of Japanese art that depicted scenes of everyday life and popular culture.
