In the late Kaei era, the Tendo Clan in Dewa Province faced financial difficulties and found themselves in debt to merchants and landlords. Instead of repaying these debts in currency, the clan commissioned the renowned artist Hiroshige to create paintings, which were then presented to the creditors as a form of repayment. These works, known as "Tendo-mono," often feature titles written in gold.
The scene depicted in the present painting captures the famous Benzaiten Shrine, located in the Inokashira Pond, a site celebrated for its clean water, which served as a vital resource for the residents of Edo. In the distance, a moon gracefully rises over a mountain, with Hiroshige masterfully capturing a moment of serene evening tranquility
