Street Scene in the New Year Season 1814

"Street Scene in the New Year Season" is a woodblock print by Utagawa Kuninao, a prominent artist of the Edo period in Japan. The print depicts a woman with two children, one carrying a kite and the other a baby, walking along a street. A playful dog runs to greet them in the foreground. The scene is set against a backdrop of trees and bamboo, and it is likely meant to convey the joy and excitement of the New Year season. Utagawa Kuninao was known for his depictions of everyday life in Edo (present-day Tokyo), and this work is a fine example of his artistic style.
