『熈代勝覧』


Japan Culture 日本の文化:

『熈代勝覧』(きだいしょうらん)KiDaiSyouRan (Edo's Manga ^_~)

The Japanese Drawing Scroll of the stories around Nihonbashi in Edo, painted in 1805...43.7cm (wide) x 1232.2 cm (long)...now you can have a look at the copy version in Mitsukoshi-mae Station, Tokyo.

熙代勝覧 (1805年)是一幅很長很長的卷畫 (江戶漫畫 ^_~),畫中描出江戶時代日本橋附近的人生百態, 寬43厘米 長1232厘米,複製品現在 東京三越前站 的地下通路展出。

由 日本橋畫到神田的今川橋,看到富士山及皇宮,當中的呉服店越後屋就是位於現在三越百貨, 畫中有88間店,1671人,其中200人是女性, 還有20狗 13馬 4牛 1鷹 1猴子等。人物畫得很生動,如小朋友不愛上學堂,抬著學堂用的長椅的父親緊緊拖著。或是美人小姐身邊的男性全都看著她,忘了看路。很有趣!

Started from Nihonbashi to Imagawa Bridge, Kanda....you can see the Mt. Fuji and the Imperial Palace in it...Edo Echigoya dry-goods store was located at Mitsukoshi Department Store...inside the painting...there have 88 stores, 1671 people (200 - female), dogs x 20, cows x 4, horse x 13, eagle x 2 and monkey x1...those people were so lively...like a kid rejected to go to school, his dad who carried a bench force him to go...men forgot to walk and stared at a beautiful maiden...so interesting! ^0^
