"View of Ochanomizu in the Eastern Capital" is a woodblock print from the Edo period, created by Shōtei Hokuju. The artwork, depicting the Ochanomizu district of Edo (modern-day Tokyo), features a sweeping view of the Kanda River winding through steep, rocky hills. The print, showcasing Hokuju’s artistic mastery, highlights the iconic Mount Fuji in the distance. The inclusion of bustling figures along the riverbank, likely residents of Edo, adds a sense of everyday life to the scene.
