This is the cover of a Japanese woodblock print album titled *Afbeeldingen van beroemde plaatsen in Tokyo- compleet* (Pictures of Famous Places in Tokyo – Complete) by Kobayashi Kiyochika. The album, which was completed after 1880, is a fine example of the *ukiyo-e* style, a genre of Japanese art that was popular in the Edo period. The cover features a simple design with a red label against a beige background. The label contains a black inscription, perhaps identifying the artist or the subject of the prints within the album. Kiyochika's work is known for its detailed depictions of urban life, often showcasing the bustling cityscape and its people. This album, like many of his others, serves as a document of Japanese life during a time of great change and modernization.
