"Spiegel van Edo" (1787) is a Japanese woodblock print by Masayoshi (1750-1825). The print depicts five cranes in flight, rendered in a delicate and detailed style. The cranes are arranged around a central vertical panel, which features a title in Japanese characters, possibly referring to the subject matter of the book. This design suggests it is the cover of a book or a scroll, showcasing the artistic sensibilities of Edo-period Japan.
